Dpkg Python module?

Viewed 7175

I'm trying to do some package manipulation (a la dpkg) and while I can just popen or subprocess.call I'd rather do things the python way if possible.

Unfortunately I've been unable to find a python module to do the trick.

I've seen reference to python-deb but it appears to be defunct. python-apt might seem like a potential solution, but AFAICT it cannot handle individual .deb files.

Anyone know of a good dpkg python solution?
