quote from the shedskin tutorial:
To compile the following simple test program, called test.py:
Code:
print 'hello, world!'
Type:
Code:
shedskin test
This will create two C++ files, called test.cpp and test.hpp, as well as a Makefile.
To create an executable file, called test, type:
Code:
make
why not just submit the resulting source files? the last step, "make" is basically what the autobuilder is doing.
you don't have to submit the python code, if you just submit the resulting c++ code it should build just as well. you could submit the additional python sources as extra files for reference...

i guess you could probably also create a -dev package for shedksin, pre-depend upon it and somehow trigger a pre-processing of your .py source. that would be much more tricky than just submitting .cpp though...
