    Maybe we could resurrected the lgp info command to be a generic package retriever.

    Whatever, a new python package format will emerge soon (egg is not in stdlib yet and we can expect some modifications).

    So, It could be convenient to have this high-level utility to keep compatibility between our previous __pkginfo__ format, upstream developper's formats and python "eggs".
