Bug#932970: ITP: fastentrypoints -- Makes entry_points specified in setup.py load more quickly



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: William Grzybowski <william@grzy.org>

* Package name    : fastentrypoints
  Version         : 0.12
  Upstream Author : Aaron Christianson <ninjaaron@gmail.com>
* URL             : https://github.com/ninjaaron/fast-entry_points
* License         : BSD
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : Makes entry_points specified in setup.py load more quickly

Using entry_points in your setup.py makes scripts that start really slowly
because it imports pkg_resources, which is a horrible thing to do if you want
your trivial script to execute more or less instantly.

This is useful to load python applications more quickly.
I plan to maintain it within DPMT.
