45
46        1. Search for your favorite Python module, for example, :
47
48               $ py2pack search pylint
49               searching for package pylint...
50               found logilab.pylintinstaller-0.15.2
51               found plpylint-0.1.2
52               found pylint-0.22.0
53
54        2. Download
55
56               $ py2pack fetch
57               downloading package pylint-0.22.0...
58               from http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pylint/pylint-0.22.0.tar.gz
59
60        3. Create a SPEC file, for example, for openSUSE:
61
62               $ py2pack generate -t opensuse.spec -f python-pylint.spec pylint
63
