Rpm and Pypi dichotomy
It looks like someone in history created package in https://pypi.python.org/pypi/dmidecode and does not maintain it. In Fedora Linux the package is in RPM from this repo or at least it looks like it https://fedorahosted.org/python-dmidecode/. The problem is when you try create some new tool that depends on this module and test it using tool like [TOX[(https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tox) you end up creating virtualenv and installing package there from pip. It would be great to fix this dichotomy and actually update the package in pypi with this one. This will also bring possibility to deliver new version of the tool to systems like Solaris, Cygwin, ... in relatively clean way.
