Accessing PyTables packages
Stable Versions

You may be interested to easy_install the latest released stable version:
$ easy_install tables
Or, you may prefer to easy_install the stable version in SVN repository instead. For example, for the stable 2.0 series, you can do:
$ easy_install http://pytables.org/svn/pytables/branches/std-2.0
Bleeding Edge Versions
The latest, coolest, and possibly buggiest 
sources can be obtained from the daily PyTables repository snapshots.
or, if you like to live dangereously, you can easy_install the SVN trunk:
$ easy_install http://pytables.org/svn/pytables/trunk
Subversion Repository
