Unpack the official distribution or check out the git repository, and perform the following at the root:
$ python setup.py build
$ python setup.py install
This will put the applications in /usr/bin, data files in /usr/share/setools, and libraries in /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/setools.
Installation Options
Please see python setup.py --help or python setup.py install --help
for up-to-date information on build and install options, respectively.
