Basian,

Yes, you should be able to make a Cmake rule to run grcc on the .grc
file to build the Python file. That could be done either during cmake
time or compile time (depends on how you want to go with it; possibly
whichever you find easier to add to the cmake files). By the end of
cmake/make, you'd have a .py file. So you would also just have a rule
to install this .py file like you would any other Python file.
