A winner-take-all genuine "killer app" for Python 
would be a port of the webserver "Ghost" Strong AI 
artificial intelligence being ported from Forth first 
into Perl5 and then the newly released Perl6. See 

http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?doid=307824.307853 on Mind.Forth AI;

http://ai.neocities.org/P6AI_FAQ.html -- Frequently Asked Questions;

http://ai.neocities.org/P6AI_man.html -- Perl6 AI User Manual; 

http://ai.neocities.org/PMPJ.html -- Perl Mind Programming Journal; 

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FKJY1WY shows how the Perl AI reasons.

May the best programming language win on the way to the Singularity!

 I guess, that gentoo's portage is (almost?) entirely written in
 python.

IIRC, yes (or perahps does it use a couple bash scripts too).

 The same is with Zope/Plone

Zope/Plone makes two distinct applications : the web application 
server Zope, and the CMS Plone.

 (Web category), though I know,
 that Zope has some parts of code written in C.

Yes. Mostly for low-level parts that couldn't be done in pure Python, at 
least by the time they were written.

 Django?

Then mention CherryPy, Turbogears and Pylons (and *quite* a lot of web 
frameworks FWIW) too !-)

Oh, and yes, there's Twisted too...

BitTorrent. It may not seem much but it's a really cool package.
Especially you don't have to use the standard frontends, but can
also use BitTorrent modules in your own Python programs.

Its a difficult question to answer as the software are aplenty and there is no
judgement basis as this one is the best.

Head on to www.python.org and see for yourself for programs under each
category.

And moreover, written entirely in python is a constrain to find the
programs. Why do you need such a list for?

Of course this is totally objective, but that dosnt mean its not a valid 
question.

If you were starting out a project were thinking of writing it in 
python, you might want to look at whats out there - maybe python has 
limitations which stops it being a good choice in some situations (for 
instance?)- on the other hand you might want to see some shining 
examples that prove the capabilities of python ;)

'Being written entirely in python' - is a bit tricky, often these 
applications rely on some specific extension or make heavy use of a 
backend that dosnt come with python (like pygame, pygtk, or py-gstreamer).

The restriction, I want, is to comply the programs written in pygame,

There are really high sophisticated programs, if you don't mind my
naming it so, as:

XPN newsreader, Boa Constructor, many pygame programs, 
gtkrawgallery, cornice graphics viewer, ...

I'm only interested to have a list, or even help to

On wxPython, there also exist such a list:

I might be a little biased, but surely Yelp.com is the best program
written entirely in Python ;-)

Other really cool Python projects are Launchpad
(https://launchpad.net/) and Trac (http://trac.edgewall.org/). And of
course most Linux desktop distributions (especially Ubuntu and
Redhat/Fedora) have a huge number of small components that rely on
Python entirely or to put together the frontend. Great examples of
this are Bazaar VCS and the Anaconda installer.

The Twisted project isn't a program per se, but it's written in Python
and is really incredible as well.

Google's Mondrian code review system is written in Python and looks
really amazing. I just wish I could try it out :-)

Ah yes of course,
