Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Pull PCAPNG Metadata with Python

I'm looking for a way to print the application and version, OS, and interface in Python.
It looks like the Section Header Block and the Interface Description Block contain the data I need.
 
My problem is the blocks/fields are not at a fixed size because of the Options field in each block:
PCAPNG format, See section 3.1 and 3.2
 
Questions:
 
1.) Are there any Python libraries that print that information?
2.) If not, are there any ways through Python that information could be easily parsed obtained?
 
Thanks
Jon
