pymazon is a graphical frontend to net-misc/clamz (bug #267873), a tool to download files from the Amazon MP3 store. Reproducible: Always
I like the idea of this, however I'm not sure it's ready for the real world yet... My list of bugs, which I will probably raise upstream: High priority: - The GTK interface is a bit broken, in that this invocation doesn't actually work: ./pymazon ~/downloads/AmazonMP3-1274972343.amz - There's a bug in the settings.py that will fail if you create a ~/.pymazon/pymazonrc file Lower priority: - There should be documentation in this pymazonrc file, and potentially a global /etc/pymazonrc file to provide system-wide defaults - There should be a way to set some of these options from within pymazon itself and have them go into ~/.pymazon/pymazonrc If the "High Priority" bugs are fixed, I would gladly put this into portage! Or, if I have time to find fixes for these issues myself, I may put it into portage anyway with my patches. Thanks very much for pointing out this software! (Also, it's not actually a front-end for clamz, but a complete replacement written in python: It does not need clamz to function, so I have removed the bug dependency here)
Minor update: I just went to the bugtracker for this project, and saw that my main concerns are already being addressed! I'm sure I'll get the next release into the tree then.
Woot, pymazon-0.9 was just released and fixes all the outstanding issues I reported! I've just added this to the tree. Enjoy!
