Python is a remarkably powerful dynamic programming language that is used in a wide variety of application domains. Some of its key distinguishing features include: clear, readable syntax; strong introspection capabilities; intuitive object orientation; natural expression of procedural code; full modularity, supporting hierarchical packages; exception-based error handling; and very high level dynamic data types.

Six is a Python 2 and 3 compatibility library. It provides utility functions for smoothing over the differences between the Python versions with the goal of writing Python code that is compatible on both Python versions. Six supports every Python version since 2.5. It is contained in only one Python file, so it can be easily copied into your project.

Nose extends the unittest library to make testing easier.
python-dbus provides bindings for libdbus, the reference implementation of D-Bus.
The lxml XML toolkit is a Pythonic binding for the C libraries libxml2 and libxslt.
This package provides a pathlib-compatible Zipfile object wrapper. It provides a backport of the Path object.
Mock is a library for testing in Python. It allows you to replace parts of your system under test with mock objects and make assertions about how they have been used. This library is now part of Python (since Python 3.3), available via the unittest.mock module.
MMTK is a library for molecular simulations with an emphasis on biomolecules. It provides widely used methods such as Molecular Dynamics and normal mode analysis, but also basic routines for implementing new methods for simulation and analysis. The library is currently not actively maintained and works only with Python 2 and NumPy < 1.9.
Pyro is a Distributed Object Technology system written in Python that is designed to be easy to use. It resembles Java's Remote Method Invocation (RMI). It has less similarity to CORBA, which is a system and language independent Distributed Object Technology and has much more to offer than Pyro or RMI. Pyro 3.x is no longer maintained. New projects should use Pyro4 instead, which is the new Pyro version that is actively developed.
Pysam is a Python module for reading and manipulating files in the SAM/BAM format. Pysam is a lightweight wrapper of the SAMtools C API. It also includes an interface for tabix.
The SciPy library is one of the core packages that make up the SciPy stack. It provides many user-friendly and efficient numerical routines such as routines for numerical integration and optimization.
NumPy is the fundamental package for scientific computing with Python. It contains among other things: a powerful N-dimensional array object, sophisticated (broadcasting) functions, tools for integrating C/C++ and Fortran code, useful linear algebra, Fourier transform, and random number capabilities.
SCons is a software construction tool. Think of SCons as an improved, cross-platform substitute for the classic Make utility with integrated functionality similar to autoconf/automake and compiler caches such as ccache. In short, SCons is an easier, more reliable and faster way to build software.
The libnl suite is a collection of libraries providing APIs to netlink protocol based Linux kernel interfaces. Netlink is an IPC mechanism primarily between the kernel and user space processes. It was designed to be a more flexible successor to ioctl to provide mainly networking related kernel configuration and monitoring interfaces.
NumPy is the fundamental package for scientific computing with Python. It contains among other things: a powerful N-dimensional array object, sophisticated (broadcasting) functions, tools for integrating C/C++ and Fortran code, useful linear algebra, Fourier transform, and random number capabilities. Version 1.8 is the last one to contain the numpy.oldnumeric API that includes the compatibility layer numpy.oldnumeric with NumPy's predecessor Numeric.
Pluggy is an extraction of the plugin manager as used by Pytest but stripped of Pytest specific details.
Enum34 is the new Python stdlib enum module available in Python 3.4 backported for previous versions of Python from 2.4 to 3.3.

Pytest is a testing tool that provides auto-discovery of test modules and functions, detailed info on failing assert statements, modular fixtures, and many external plugins.
Cython is an optimising static compiler for both the Python programming language and the extended Cython programming language. It makes writing C extensions for Python as easy as Python itself.
Pandas is a Python package providing fast, flexible, and expressive data structures designed to make working with structured (tabular, multidimensional, potentially heterogeneous) and time series data both easy and intuitive. It aims to be the fundamental high-level building block for doing practical, real world data analysis in Python.
The Python Imaging Library adds image processing capabilities to your Python interpreter. This library provides extensive file format support, an efficient internal representation, and fairly powerful image processing capabilities. The core image library is designed for fast access to data stored in a few basic pixel formats. It should provide a solid foundation for a general image processing tool.
