Hi, It may seem like a backwards way of doing things, but I have a need for a utility that can maintain a python package index mirror of a Debian repository.
The basic idea is to extract the tarballs of Python packages from the Debian repository and rename them to the original setuptools name. It should also create a buildout-compatible versions file of the versions in the repository. My current implementation idea is to unpack the tarball and use the egg-metadata to figure out what the "egg" name of the tarball should be. Does such a tool exists? If not, I'll probably start working on one on svn.zope.org Real Soon Now (TM). Comments, suggestions much appreciated! -- Brian Sutherland _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
