No way to install extra Python modules with stand-alone bzr installation on Windows

[Eli Zaretskii]

Some plugins need extra Python modules to be installed (examples: bzr-git and bzr-fastimport). However, there's currently no way of doing so with standa-lone Windows installations of Bazaar, because the PYTHONPATH used by the stand-alone Bazaar includes only the library.zip file.

Please add a feature whereby some additional directory is available where one could install extra Python modules. One possibility to implement this was mention in https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/bazaar/2011q1/071810.html

Why is this in bzr itself rather than the installers?

This should be fixed in the bzr-core ATM because we still have bzr.exe build process in the bzr-core codebase,

This should be fixed in the bzr-core ATM because we still have bzr.exe build process in the bzr-core codebase, and to fix this bug we need to patch tools/win32/py2exe_boot_common.py file from bzr-core codebase.

Now could be a good time to move this file from bzr-core to the windows installer project then, no ?

[Alexander Belchenko (bialix)]

we should add to windows installer the action to create "site-packages" directory after install.

No, we need to extract out py2exe related code from setup.py first.
