python-ctypes 0.9.9.6-1ubuntu1 (i386 binary) in ubuntu edgy

 ctypes is a ffi (Foreign Function Interface) package for Python. ctypes
 allows you to call functions exposed from dlls/shared libraries and has
 extensive facilities to create, access and manipulate simple and
 complicated C data types in Python - in other words: wrap libraries in pure
 Python. It is even possible to implement C callback functions in pure
 Python.
