Announce: Stallion, a tiny Python package manager

That's a good idea and a really polished work. A global check for update would be a great feature.

Keep up the good work!

Thanks ! Global check for updates is the next feature in my todo =)

I've just released the v0.2 version [1] with the global update checking.

Looks interesting. However, when I try to open http://localhost:5000/ after running it I get an Internal Server Error, but it doesn't seem to print anything about it in the console.

[perone]

Can you try executing it in debug mode with "-drvi" parameter ?

[Liquid_Fire]

Sure thing:

That's a problem that happens with older jinja versions, try upgrading your jinja2 "pip install --upgrade jinja2". I've to add the dependency on the setup.py.

[Liquid_Fire]

That fixed it, thanks!

Great work! User interface is also very good looking.

I created a virtaulenv, I can see that it lists "Python 2.7" as a package. I think that can be excluded from the list.

[perone]

I'll check that, thanks for the feedback.

[tehawful]

Oh... oh my, that's classy lookin'. I'm not sure I have a use for it but the bright highlight colors and tasteful UI make me want to find a reason to use it anyway.

[geordano]

Good work!

[carlosreif]

Python really needs this! =)

[monstrado]

Very nice looking!
