Both easy_install and pip uses similar method to find download URLs for
packages. They are not very unreliable - see the new issues in Distribute
tracker:
http://bitbucket.org/tarek/distribute/issues/?status=new&reported_by=srid
Hence I suggest that we create a separate project containing just this
indexing code .. and let Distribute and pip use it via install_requires.
Thoughts?
