Including python libs

Including python libs

[itodroid]

Greetings all!

I'm having a little trouble figuring out the "right" way to include some
extra python libraries into a recipe, and for the life of me, I cannot
figure it out.  I'm using Python2.6 and I have a few python scripts that
depend on httplib.  I've found that httplib.py is contained within
"python-2.6.6-ml12.2".  

In my recipe, I've tried "include python-2.6.6ml12.2" and also "DEPEND +=
python-2.6.6ml12.2", neither of which actually include the
/usr/lib/python2.6/<python libs> into my rootfs.

I believe that httplib is part of python-netclient which appears to be
provided by python-2.6-manifest.inc.  I've also tried including this
manifest file into my recipe, but still, I cannot get the libraries into my
rootfs.

Can anyone provide some insight as to what I'm doing wrong?  Thanks in
advance.

If it's part of python itself then
RDEPENDS_${PN} += "python"
if it's in python-netclient then
RDEPENDS_${PN} += "python-netclient"
