Yes it is: http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/python-pip

#13Why does this even access a server (i.e. the hosted zinc api)? This could be done purely on the client side (= better privacy, security and performance), so I assume it's because zinc wants to add its affiliate id and earn a commission.

I'm one of the guys working on this.
We don't add an affiliate ID. A totally client-side solution would be really cool--we're thinking about making one but it does present a few more challenges. If it wasn't clear, this is more of a proof-of-concept than a practical solution.
If you have an idea that requires a fully client-side library, let us know and we can help!

Thanks for the credit. I've also got animated gif support somewhere in those gists (and a server for generating them written in Julia).
