Crate.io

Есть прекрасный репозиторий PyPI (Python Package Index), откуда очень удобно ставить пакеты с помощью pip

pip install yolk

Не все знают, но у PyPI есть не менее замечательное зеркало Crate.io и с него тоже можно ставить пакеты

Here's how to use pip with crate.io (in case pypi.python.org goes down):

$ pip install --index-url=https://simple.crate.io yolk 

Or with logging to see what's happening:

$ pip install --log=my-pip-debug.log --index-url=https://simple.crate.io yolk

Crate is a PyPI Mirror/Python Package Index that was written to make it easy to discover packages, evaluate them for usefulness, and then install them. Additionally it also focuses on presenting an extremely stable interface to PyPI compatible applications (e.g. Pip)....

Crate.io is built on top of Python using the Django framework. It uses Celery to process its shared tasks, PostgreSQL to store its data, and Redis as its caching layer.
