Moved xmlrpc functionality into its own module, in order to reduce
the amount of fuss involved in doing an xmlrpc call to pypi, and also
to assist in writing other tools that interact with pypi.

Add a way for someone to specify a url in the form:
http://example.com/path/to/$package-$version.tar.gz

the package name is taken from $package, the file is downloaded and then the
package built.

This isn't very nice, we can improve the commandline parsing to make this
nicer. Currently this is required for installing things like rdflib that
provide a download url, but don't have a package uploaded to the cheeseshop.

Remove the executable bit on core.py, it shouldn't have it.

Download to sepearte directories that need to be created - should make these
automatically created.

Support zip files.

6. By sthorne <email address hidden> on 2008-05-07

Add the setup.cfg file which will cause the doc directory to be packaged.

5. By sthorne <email address hidden> on 2008-05-07

Make the cleanup always happen. Always create a traditional dist directory.

4. By sthorne <email address hidden> on 2008-05-07

Support debian packaging.
Support python packages that have manifests, as they seem to work rather
poorly.
Support ignoring the 'debian' directory from upstream, it will cause
this tool to blow up when we try to use it.

3. By sthorne <email address hidden> on 2008-05-07

Fix absolute/relative import problems, don't name the package the same as a
module within the package.
