The package has no runtime dependencies, meaning it installs without pulling in external libraries. However, the project has been inactive since August 2020, with the last commit in September 2020 \u2014 over 2203 days ago. The repository is not archived, but the lack of recent activity indicates the package is no longer maintained or developed.\n\nWithout a clear summary of functionality, it is difficult to determine whether dacktool solves a specific problem or provides general-purpose utilities. The vague description and absence of documentation make it unclear what use cases the package is intended for or whether it remains compatible with current Python versions, despite claiming to support Python 3.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned, provides no clear documentation of what it does, and has not been updated in over 2203 days. The vague description ('some python tools') gives no basis to determine whether it solves your problem. The MIT license is permissive, but permissive licensing cannot compensate for lack of maintenance and clarity. Install only if you are maintaining legacy code that already depends on it."},"id":"dacktool","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/dacktool","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/dacktool.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/dacktool/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2020-08-02","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"dacktool","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Some python tools"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":163674,"position":10565,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.0.7"}
