Thanks Chris, and Chris Angelico.  Just to make sure I'm not completely
barking can you try a search on pypi, as I know I've found it that way in
the past, but literally not right now.  The first hit I get for 'itertools'
is picklable-itertools 0.1.1 with a weight of 9, 'more-itertools' finds
nothing, 'more_itertools' takes you to
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/langchangetrack/0.1.0.  Or am I simply having
another "shouldn't try this at stupid o'clock in the morning" phases?

No, you're not barking. Or if you are, so am I. That's the exact same
results I see.

I wonder if the search is not currently looking at package names? A
few quick searches for 'psycopg2', 'docstringargs', 'pytz', and such
shows that a bunch of packages either aren't found at all, or are much
lower in the list than something that references it. Other packages,
like 'clize' and 'docutils', do come up at the top; they have their
own names also in their descriptions.

Looks like it's time to go to the bug tracker.

Okay, but I don't intend doing that too quickly as I'm all ready shattered, it being 03:45 and all that. But then you go to check which bug tracker and what do you find but https://bitbucket.org/pypa/pypi/issues/326/some-packages-not-showing-up-when
