[Catalog-sig] Fwd: [ pypi-Bugs-3488989 ] Need a way to list all package versions

[anatoly techtonik]

Hi,

I find SF tracker very annoying, because it doesn't even allow to add
comments to a closed issue (see below). That's why crossposting here.

So, there two questions:
1. does anybody else also thinks that having a way to list all package
versions available on PyPI would be awesome?
2. is there people who don't like SF tracker?

Please, CC.

Summary: Need a way to list all package versions

Initial Comment:
Web interface doesn't have a feature to list all package version available
from PyPI. This can be handy.

Message:
You cannot. This is intentional; the Sphinx authors chose to hide all but
the current version from you.

Closing the report as "works for me"; PyPI does support listing multiple
versions, and the feature seems to work correctly as designed.

Message:
All right. So, how can I list all Sphinx versions available from PyPI using
web interface of Python Package Index?

Why I can't see anything for Sphinx?

Message:
It most certainly supports listing all versions. E.g. if you go to

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Django

you see all Django versions.
