Python: get default gateway for a local interface/ip address in linux

Question

On Linux, how can I find the default gateway for a local ip address/interface using python?

I saw the question "How to get internal IP, external IP and default gateway for UPnP", but the accepted solution only shows how to get the local IP address for a network interface on windows.

Thanks.

It seems http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pynetinfo/0.1.9 can do this, but I haven't tested it.
