We like how it works - I appreciate someone else might like it another way, and it seems you do. I'm far from an expert on python packaging, but setting preferred path locations via setup.cfg seems quite commonplace for python packages. In our distribution build environment, it works well, but I rather suspect our requirements differ from yours.

Having messed with configure.in scripts before and trying to deal with all
the unix variants, I'd just like to point out that Anthony has done an
amazing job of getting things to build on multiple platforms, different
versions of oracle, and many different types of oracle installations.

Thanks Anthony!
