Justus Winter 7eef399d89 python: Get version information from the build system.
* configure.ac: Generate 'setup.py' and 'version.py'.
* lang/python/Makefile.am: Use generated setup script.
* lang/python/pyme/version.py: Turn it into a template, and get
version information from the build system.  Also drop some variables.
* lang/python/setup.py: Likewise.  This way we can avoid importing the
version module, which is frowned upon and actually caused a problem.

PyME
====

PyMe is a python interface to the `GPGME
<https://www.gnupg.org/related_software/gpgme/>`_ library.

PyMe's development model is a `GPGME
<https://www.gnupg.org/related_software/gpgme/>`_ + Python 3 + `SWIG
<http://www.swig.org/>`_ combination which means that most of the functions and
types are converted from C into Python 3 automatically by SWIG. In short, to be
able to use PyMe you need to be `familiar with GPGME
<https://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gpgme/>`_.
