Hi!

>I had one question though.  In the 'Numeric' ebuild there's a line
>'PYTHON_VERSION=', what is that for?

Sorry. This is my bad. :( It does nothing.  I forgot to comment it out.

The idea was to grab the current python version, so the ebuild would
know where to put any "extras" I wanted it to install that were not
automatically installed by setup.py. (this was in anticipation of a
working python2.1 so the module ebuild would not have to be updated if
the core python version was updated)  

Now that I think about it more.

PYTHON_VERSION='python -c "import sys; print sys.version[:3]"'

will give the version of the current running python.

Then for example, the last line of the Numeric ebuild could have been

mv Demo/NumTut ${D}/usr/lib/python${PYTHON_VERSION}/site-packages/

However, the "best" solution would probably be to sed setup.py and/or
setup.cfg (although numeric-19.0 doesn't have this) to include any
additional files you would like to install.
