Re: Archive type for PYZ packages without extraction

The http://repo.roscidus.com/python/python feed already contains a "pointer"
to http://0install.de/feeds/Python.xml feed, so the .pyz is already executed
by Python on Windows. However there are few issues:

* There is no Windows implementation for
http://repo.roscidus.com/python/python-gobject. However GObject is already
bundled with the Windows build of Python used by Zero Install. You can use
<requires interface="http://repo.roscidus.com/python/python-gobject"
os="POSIX"> to tell Zero Install not to bother with that particular
dependency on Windows.

* Launching the .pyz on Windows fails with "ImportError: No module named gi"
in uikit.py. Haven't look into what exactly is causing that. Maybe an
additional dependency needs to be bundled in the .pyz to work on Windows?

* You need to upload a couple of additional files in the same directory as
http://fossil.include-once.org/streamtuner2/doc/trunk/dev/0-st2.xml for the
feed to work for everyone. The .gpg file must be present for 0install to be
able to verify the feed's signature. It will work without only on your local
machine because your key is already in your GPG keyring. The .xsl and .css
files make the feed look pretty in the browser. :)

And thanks again!
Seems to run just fine now.

And I guess for the Windows runner http://0install.de/feeds/Python.xml,
it's perhaps simpler to default to the older .pyw extension, which it's
already registered as file-type handler for.
