I found a version of Pizza.py on Github:
https://github.com/slitvinov/Pizza.py

…and I forked it:
https://github.com/cfinch/Pizza.py

On my “develop” branch, you will find a version of Pizza.py that has been modified to fit the standard format used by Python setuputils/distutils. Pizza.py can now be downloaded and installed with a single command using pip (http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/index.html):
pip install --user Pizza.py
This command installs files in the user’s home directory, and does not require root privileges.

I don’t use Pizza.py in an interactive mode, but the extensions to the Python command-line interface should still work with the command:
python -i ~/.local/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pizza/pizza.py
The exact installation path may differ for your operating system.

If you fork my repo on GitHub and make improvements, please use the “git flow” conventions for branch naming:

Does this mean that all the other Python packages (OpenGL, Tcl/Tk, Numeric, etc)
needed by various of the Pizza.py tools are also automatically installed
or included for you in the setup/install?

I included only NumPy as a requirement (which has replaced Numeric). I didn’t include OpenGL or Tcl/Tk as requirements since Pizza.py functions without them (at least the functionality that I’m using). I don’t know if Python setuptools/distutils has a way to handle optional dependencies.
