## 1.2. Tailoring your installation

If you want to install Pantry as a non-root user, you'll want to read the Python distutils manual, which explains various options for the setup.py script.

Also, I should warn you that Python's distutils has no way to uninstall what it installs. If you want to easily remove Pantry, users of most distributions should look into using CheckInstall. Gentooists can easily write an ebuild for Pantry using the distutils eclass.
