Right. Does a listing on CheeseShop automatically mean that it has to
be installable with setuptools?

But in any case, the packages you get, the Products.* existing there
already, have a structure of:

/Products.TheProduct
/Products.TheProduct/Product
/Products.TheProduct/Product/TheProduct

For small sites not using buildout or so, downloading this tgz and
moving TheProduct directory into your Products directory works and is
no more work that having a tgz with a

/TheProduct-4.5.6

directory, wich is quite common also.

So with this you can choose if you want to use setuptoools or not...
