yolk 0.4.1 has been released. This is mainly a bugfix release.

Changes:

  * Added HTTP proxy support for XML-RPC

(this was fixed upstream in PyPI)
  * Check for integer with -L

What is yolk?
=============

yolk is a command-line client and library for querying installed Python 
packages on your system and packages in The Python Package Index (PyPI).

Features:

  * List installed Python packages (all, active, non-active, develpment 
mode)
  * Show which installed packages have updates available on PyPI
  * Show all metadata for a package or individual fields, installed or 
via PyPI
  * Show just URLs for source, egg or repository (SVN etc.)
  * Show setuptools entrypoints for a module
  * All commands available through PyPI's XML-RPC interface

yolk uses a setuptools-based plugin system.

Third-party plugins
===================

  * yolk-portage - Shows which packages were installed via Gentoo 
Linux's package manager and which were installed directly via 
setuptools/distutils.

Applications based on yolklib

  * qyolk - GUI for yolk in QT
