Description: distutils recipe
        ================
        
        For Python packages which are only installable with distutils, and aren't
        yet avaiable as eggs. This recipe will download a distutils tarball, build it
        and place it inside your buildout inside a parts/site-packages directory.
        
        It is up to you to inform your Python about this site-packages directory.
        You might do this with the zc.recipe.egg recipe::
        
        [buildout]
        parts =
        mypython
        
        [mypython]
        recipe = zc.recipe.egg
        eggs = zc.recipe.egg
        extra-paths = ${buildout:directory}/parts/site-packages/
        interpreter = mypython
        scripts = mypython
        
        
        Options
        -------
        
        url
        The URL of the archives to download and install. The archive specified
        will be installed inside a site-packages directory.
        
        build_ext
        Additional build options passed to setup.py.
        
        To-Do
        -----
        
        Currently only enough work has been done on this recipe to get it to
        install mx-base and psycopg2. There is lots of room for improvement ...
        
        Example Usage
        -------------
        
        A sample buildout.cfg that installs mx-base and psycopg2 inside the
        site-packages directory. It also installs PostgreSQL for building
        psycopg2, adjusting the build_ext for psycopg2 to point to an existing
        PostgreSQL install would remove the need for this:
        
        [buildout]
        parts =
        egenix-mx-base
        mypython
        postgresql
        psycopg2
        
        [egenix-mx-base]
        recipe = collective.recipe.distutils
        url = http://downloads.egenix.com/python/egenix-mx-base-3.0.0.zip
        
        [mypython]
        recipe = zc.recipe.egg
        eggs = zc.recipe.egg
        extra-paths = ${buildout:directory}/parts/site-packages/
        interpreter = mypython
        scripts = mypython
        
        [postgresql]
        recipe = zc.recipe.cmmi
        url = http://www.bcgsc.ca/downloads/parts/software/resources/src/postgresql/postgresql-8.1.9.tar.gz
        
        [psycopg2]
        recipe = collective.recipe.distutils
        url = http://www.bcgsc.ca/downloads/parts/software/resources/src/psycopg2/psycopg2-2.0.6.tar.gz
        build_ext = --pg-config=${buildout:directory}/parts/postgresql/bin/pg_config --rpath=${buildout:directory}/parts/postgresql/lib
