Comment 1 Tiziano Müller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-08-29 14:21:43 UTC
KInterbasDB is a Python extension package that implements Python Database API 2.0-compliant support for the open source relational database Firebird and some versions of its proprietary cousin Borland® Interbase®. In addition to the minimal feature set of the standard Python DB API, KInterbasDB also exposes nearly the entire native client API of the database engine.
Comment 2 Tiziano Müller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-08-29 14:38:21 UTC
Use for example by dev-python/sqlalchemy (bug #132037) to connect to firebird databases.
