Thu July 31, 2025 03:19 PM

The IBM Python wheel repository hosts wheel packages for the Linux on Power platform. This blog provides details about the available wheels and their license information.

To check the licenses for available wheels, complete the following steps:

1. Download the required wheel from pypi using the following command.

pip download <package_name>==<version> --prefer-binary --index-url=https://wheels.developerfirst.ibm.com/ppc64le/linux --verbose --no-deps

2. Unzip the content of wheel and then browse through files for checking included licenses.

unzip <your-package>.whl -d output-directory/

OR

If the package is already installed, you can navigate to `<python-path>/site-packages/` to access its files and associated license information.

Here is a full list of packages, along with version and license details https://github.com/ppc64le/pyeco/blob/main/DevpiWheelsIndex.md
