Whoops, just realised that msilib doesn't read CAB files it only creates them. Sorry about that.

Yes. Its called the Windows API, which has in built CAB support.
If everything was not true, would it be not true that everything is not true? So by saying everything is not true, you are automatically denying that everything is not true. Im so confused... FreeDOS - An open source modern MS-DOS/PC-DOS replacement.

Wow, sarcastic and devoid of content. Bravo. Add a stupid character to the end of your handle and win a prize. You're a winner. First off, it's NOT the _WINDOWS_ API. It's the CAB SDK. Second, said SDK is not exactly trivial to implement, unlike the current Python zip support. Third, there currently isn't a py module to wrap the CAB SDK but if the OP wants to download the CAB SDK, there are some commandline tools that come with the SDK which can create and extract cabinet files albeit rather unintuitively.
