+pipdeptree is a command line utility for displaying the python
+packages installed in an environment in form of a dependency
+tree. Since 'pip freeze' shows all dependencies as a flat list,
+finding out which are the top level packages and which packages do
+they depend on requires some effort. This utility tries to solve this
+problem.
