No permission viewing package details when trying to build vpython spec

Project Member Reported by robertma@chromium.org, Dec 8 2017

Issue description

I was following the doc
https://chromium.googlesource.com/infra/infra/+/master/doc/users/vpython.md
to build a vpython specification.

The doc points me to https://chrome-infra-packages.appspot.com/#/?path=infra/python/wheels for available packages. Yet when I click on any of them, it says "You don't have permission to view this package." And there is no login button on the UI.

Hi Robert, please use the command line interface for now. I'll see if I can get login support finished in the next week but no promises.
Hi Erik, thanks for the reply but I struggle to find how to use the command line to create a specification.

Basically, I'm trying to get the latest version of a few packages on CIPD so that I can put the version strings in the spec. `vpython -vpython-tool help` does not seem to have what I need. And the doc I linked to in the OP doesn't seem to contain related information, either.
qyearsley@ told me it's probably the `cipd` tool.

`cipd ls` is as good as the web UI, and it doesn't seem to be able to list the versions, either.

`cipd describe` requires the version string...

So I wrote a simple script to trial and error: start with the latest version on PyPi and decrement the version number until `cipd describe` is happy...
List of available wheels along with their versions: https://chromium.googlesource.com/infra/infra/+/master/infra/tools/dockerbuild/wheels.md

(Discoverable through vpython user doc at https://chromium.googlesource.com/infra/infra/+/master/doc/users/vpython.md)

Up till recently all our cipd packages were being built from our own sources and tagged with git_revision:<SHA1> tags, so listing of versions is basically listing of git history, and thus it wasn't implemented.
