When debugging server issues or inspecting the expected results
its often useful to run
"utils/piston-helpers/piston_generic_helper.py" in debug mode.

Some examples:
$ PYTHONPATH=. utils/piston-helpers/piston_generic_helper.py \
   --output=text --debug --needs-auth \
   SoftwareCenterAgentAPI subscriptions_for_me

$ PYTHONPATH=. utils/piston-helpers/piston_generic_helper.py \
  --output=text --debug --needs-auth \
  SoftwareCenterAgentAPI available_apps_qa \
  '{ "lang" : "en", "series" : "oneiric", "arch" : "i386" }'

$ PYTHONPATH=. utils/piston-helpers/piston_generic_helper.py \
  --output=text --debug  \
  SoftwareCenterAgentAPI available_apps \
  '{ "lang" : "en", "series" : "oneiric", "arch" : "i386" }'

$ PYTHONPATH=. utils/piston-helpers/piston_generic_helper.py \
   --output=text --debug \
   SoftwareCenterRecommenderAPI recommend_top


Any piston-mini-client API should work, first name is the class
second the method to run, optional is a json encoded kwargs string.

To get http debug output you can use the environment variable
SOFTWARE_CENTER_DEBUG_HTTP=1.
