Bug#883903: RFP: robobrowser -- Your friendly neighborhood web scraper



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-python@lists.debian.org

* Package name    : robobrowser
  Version         : 0.5.3
  Upstream Author : Joshua Carp
* URL             : http://robobrowser.readthedocs.org/ https://github.com/jmcarp/robobrowser

  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : Your friendly neighborhood web scraper

The Python mechanize doesn't support Python 3 so alternatives are
needed. One of them (MechanicalSoup) is in Debian but isn't very useful
compared to Mechanize. RoboBrowser looks more useful but isn't
maintained upstream, but is probably more likely to work like Mechanize
than MechanicalSoup does.
