Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

virtualenv is a tool to create isolated Python environments. The basic problem being addressed is one of dependencies and versions, and indirectly permissions. Imagine you have an application that needs version 1 of LibFoo, but another application requires version 2. Or more generally, what if you want to install an application and leave it be? If an application works, any change in its libraries or the versions of those libraries can break the application. Also, what if you cant install packages into the global site-packages directory? For instance, on a shared host. In all these cases, virtualenv can help you. It creates an environment that has its own installation directories, that doesnt share libraries with other virtualenv environments (and optionally doesnt use the globally installed libraries either).

Packages by operating system

Compare recorded versions, then open a package for dependency, file, checksum, and repository evidence. Version strings are distribution-specific, not a ranking of newer software.

Mapping provenance

Only source-backed identity signals create public cross-OS links. A reviewer can later approve or dispute an inferred relationship without rewriting native package history.
