Ok, easy_install is really cool.

Installing most of the packages (*) that one needs with easy_install
makes the wish grow to use easy_install as a complete solution.

So, why can't easy_install manage the packages that I have installed in
these ways:

- list the packages that I have installed
- remove one of them (completely!) if I don't want to use it any longer.

Because nobody got around to building that functionality yet. Feel free to donate this functionality :-)

BTW. On my machine:

$ packman list
altgraph     - 0.6.8.dev-r9    - system, develop, active
bdist-mpkg   - 0.4.3.dev-r14   - system, develop, active
cElementTree - 1.0.5-20051216  - system, active
Cheetah      - 1.0             - system, active
CherryPy     - 2.2.1           - system, active
configobj    - 4.3.2           - system, active
docutils     - 0.4             - system, active
...

One of these days I'm going to polish this up and publish it somewhere, it's a command-line wrapper for setuptools. There's also a GUI layer (for OSX only), but that's far from finished.
