<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>This manual page documents briefly the
<command>&dhpackage;</command>
command.</para>
<para>This manual page was written for the &debian; distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.</para>
<para><command>&dhpackage;</command> creates virtual Python
executables, each of which can have its own set of installed
modules. Programs that require different versions of modules
or sets of modules that may be incompatible with others to be
installed on the same system without conflicts.</para>
<para>The result is a directory containing its own Python
executables (in DIR/bin/pythonVER and DIR/bin/python) and its
own module directory containing the standard library as
installed by the system. Additional modules may be installed
via setuptools, as invoked from the binary directory
(DIR/bin/easy_install). The system's site-packages directories
will be available, but can be overriden with locally-installed
modules.</para>
<para>In addition, a shell script called "activate" will be
installed in the bin directory. If sourced, this will cause
normal invokations of the Python executable to use the virtual
environment.</para>
<para>By running the &dhpackage; command explicitly under the
desired Python interpreter, the user can control which version
of Python is created in the virtual environment.</para>
