操作RPM和DEB包的PYTHON模块

python-rpm:

python-apt:

Actually, python-apt allows you to work with these files directly. Here's an example:

from apt.debfile import DebPackage
from pprint import pprint
pkg = DebPackage('/tmp/wajig_2.7_all.deb')
pprint(pkg.filelist)

Output:

$ ./script.py
['./',
 'etc/',
 'etc/bash_completion.d/',
 ...
 'usr/bin/',
 'usr/bin/wajig']

It's not as complete as I would like sadly, but it has a bunch of functionality.
