That's interesting, I think this could help me become more familiar with which packages are popular or rising in the Python world. For a developer who's generally out of the loop such as myself, that's great.

Taking bug reports?

I checked out mysqldb. It properly took me to a page with the correct capitalization, which indicates it found the package in some way: http://pythonpackages.com/pypi/mysqldb?entry=1

However, the 'View on PyPI' link goes to http://pypi.python.org/pypi/MySQLdb which is a broken link. While the module is called MySQLdb, the package is called MySQL-python, and so page is at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/MySQL-python/

Not sure how you can work that out, but hope this helps.




Thanks! That's an interesting edge case I need to think about.
