It's installed in b1 already. The msi generator picks up all .py files in Lib automatically, except for those that have been explicitly excluded (the plat-* ones).

Ah cool. I was confusing it with extensions and mis-remembering.

I think "make install INSTALL=true|grep true" should print the names of all .py files in Lib, except for the ones in plat-*.

I modified the build.sh script to run the installed version. As long as some test references the new package, this should catch the problem. I sure hope we don't allow a new package without tests. :-)

I also modified the buildbot config to ignore changes if all the files in a revision are under Demo, Doc, or Misc. This change (if I got it right and it works) should help reduce some builds that have little benefit.
