+long_description        This package provides additional functions to Python's distutils and setuptools. \
+                        It allows you to easily integrate gettext, icons and GNOME documentation into \
+                        your build and installation process. \
+                        It also provides an "auto" module which provides a "do what I mean" automatic \
+                        build system\; if you stick to the conventions, you do not need to write setup.cfg, \
+                        POTFILES.in, or MANIFEST.in, and setup.py just needs to have the package metadata \
+                        (such as project name and version).
