Process this file with an XSLT processor: `xsltproc \
-''-nonet /usr/share/sgml/docbook/stylesheet/xsl/nwalsh/\
manpages/docbook.xsl manpage.dbk'.  A manual page
<package>.<section> will be generated.  You may view the
manual page with: nroff -man <package>.<section> | less'.  A
typical entry in a Makefile or Makefile.am is:

DB2MAN=/usr/share/sgml/docbook/stylesheet/xsl/nwalsh/\
manpages/docbook.xsl
XP=xsltproc -''-nonet

manpage.1: manpage.dbk
        $(XP) $(DB2MAN) $<
    
The xsltproc binary is found in the xsltproc package.  The
XSL files are in docbook-xsl.  Please remember that if you
create the nroff version in one of the debian/rules file
targets (such as build), you will need to include xsltproc
and docbook-xsl in your Build-Depends control field.

    <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>

    <title>OPTIONS</title>

    <para>These programs follow the usual &gnu; command line syntax,
      with long options starting with two dashes (`-').  A summary of
      options is included below.</para>
