I do have a tool (named 'pkginfo', funnily enough) which does parse them: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pkginfo http://pythonhosted.org/pkginfo/ I use it in another tool, 'compoze', which allows me to build "cureated" indexes from versions installed locally (e.g., after testing in a virtualenv): https://pypi.python.org/pypi/compoze/ http://docs.repoze.org/compoze/ Tres. - -- =================================================================== Tres Seaver +1 540-429-0999 tsea...@palladion.com Palladion Software "Excellence by Design" http://palladion.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with undefined - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlFTKBcACgkQ+gerLs4ltQ4x/wCfZsp/p60ELrQvTCXfdPMhuK1E qJQAoJXvTlTSo1iy/KxylnuizPodbr25 =IJ6t -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
