Benoît DEJEAN <address@hidden> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License: 
Package: python wrapper for glibtop
System name: pyglibtop
Type: GNU

Description:
Although python provides functions to get system informations (such as 
os.getloadavg) in its standard library, it is not possible to get accurate 
information without making platform dependant system calls like 
os.system('uptime').

Some programmers of another GPL project often complained about this. One of 
them ask me to write something to make this easier and portable. I found 
glibtop, the GNU C library, and tried to build my first python wrapper using 
SWIG.  People found this great and told me to publish it seperalty. Here it is. 
Hope it help.



    I am a newbie in Free Software. Even if i have distributed some big scripts 
under GPL, that wasn't very serious. I'm running GNU Linux and software for 
over 3 years and it is the first time I think i have done something that worths 
more than 0.02€. It wasn't very hard, but quite boring. But it seems to work 
and will be part of libgdesklet (part of gDesklets)
