I think I will give a try this weekend. Building a PyPI package for Arch is 
trivial, and reading the dependency info is very easy, so I will just try to 
do it.

If it works... great. If it doesn't... then we start again with more hands :-)

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. 
Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, 
by definition, not smart enough to debug it. --Brian W. Kernighan
