Hi @RolandWa !

This is a good idea ... but ... I don't see a mechanism to declare Python dependencies. I think KiCad plug-ins packaged for the Addon Manager are limited to plug-ins without extra Python dependencies.

Also: no hooks are provided, like pre-install, post-install, pre-rm and post-rm.

We could implement a complex mechanism that installs a KiCost installer, in the first run it could install the dependencies and the real KiCost script. But I'm not sure about this.
