Bug#527205: ITP: inotifyx -- Simple Python binding to the Linux inotify file system event monitoring API



Twas brillig at 17:09:45 06.05.2009 UTC+05 when rrs@researchut.com did gyre and gimble:

pyinotify is known for several (two? can't remember exactly) API breaks,
yes. So, as there are applications which rely on another inotifyx (which
is not an application, but a library), it has to be packaged.

But pyinotify is not dead upstream.
