2. The messages:
Couldn't find index page for 'jimtest' (maybe misspelled?) Scanning index of all packages (this may take a while)
should be info messages, not warning messages. If they remain warnings, and you fix the first problem, it will be impossible to avoid the warnings without creating a PyPI project or creating an index server, and I don't think it was your intent to require either of these. I don't think a warning should be issues for correct use of software.
Here's the problem. Reducing everything to info messages means there's effectively no control over output detail. I generally use 'warn()' for things that *may* reflect an error in input parameters. So, my take on the above is that although the "Scanning" message could become an info(), the previous one shouldn't.
This means that one always has to use an index. In which case, what is the point of find-links? Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@zope.com Python Powered! CTO (540) 361-1714 http://www.python.org Zope Corporation http://www.zope.com http://www.zope.org
