Bug#772825: ITP: pyzolib -- Utilities for the Pyzo environment



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ghislain Antony Vaillant <ghisvail@gmail.com>

* Package name    : pyzolib
  Version         : 0.3.3
  Upstream Author : Almar Klein <almar.klein@gmail.com>
* URL             : https://bitbucket.org/pyzo/pyzolib
* License         : BSD
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : Utilities for the Pyzo environment

Description
 The pyzolib package provides basic functionality for the Pyzo environment.
 It contains a collection of modules and small packages that should be
 imported as "from pyzolib import xxx"
 .
 The packages currently are:
   * path - object oriented path processing (no more os.path.x)
   * paths - Get paths to useful directories in a cross platform manner.
   * qt - Proxy for importing QtCore et al. from PySide or PyQt4
   * ssdf - the Simple Structured Data Format (for config files and
     scientific databases)
   * insertdocs - a sphynx pre-processor to include docstrings in the text,
     allowing readthedocs.org to host the docs without requiring importing code.
   * pyximport - for easy on the fly compilation of Cython, using the Pyzo
     environment to establish the location of a gcc compiler.
   * gccutils - used by the above to manage the gcc compiler.
   * interprerers - list the Python interpreters available on this system.
   * dllutils - utilities to set the RPATH in dynamic libararies and
     remove depndencies on the MSVCR from the embedded manifest.

Further information:
 - Pyzolib is a dependency to iep [1],
 - Pyzolib has already been reviewed and packaged in Fedora [2].

I'd suggest to maintain this package as part of the Debian Science
family, together with IEP.
