Hello Pascal,

I can answer to problem number one -- indeed, I wrote a
small article
about it and the solution.  You can find that here:

http://blogs.activestate.com/kevinw/2006/01/unix
_package_ch.html

I believe that problems number two and three are related --
once problem
number one is solved, the other two are solved as well.

Cheers,

kjw
