  Description     : Distutils extensions for developing Python libraries and applications.

Python Build Utilities (buildutils) is a set of extension commands to Python's
standard distutils that are often useful during development and deployment of
python projects. buildutils was created with the desire of removing make and
other external build tools from the python development process.
.
Because buildutils is integrated with distutils, information about a project
can be obtained from the project's setup.py and setup.cfg files. This allows
commands to provide smart defaults when invoking external tools and utilities.
