Distribute is intended to replace Setuptools as the standard method for working
with Python module distributions.
The project has two goals:
- Providing a backward compatible version to replace Setuptools and make all
distributions that depend on Setuptools work as before, but with less bugs and
behavioral issues.
- Re-factoring the code, and releasing it in several distributions. This work is
being done in the 0.7.x series but not yet released.

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/distribute#id2
- Update to 0.6.16
- Add code to Makefile to support the installation fo py-distribute
with different versions of Python
- Add files/pkg-message.in
- Pass maintainership to python@, in anticipation of a possible use
of py-distribute as default (or Python 3k only) tool to install
Python eggs (see PR http://goo.gl/0pNai )
- Bump PORTREVISION
- Fix pkg-plist
- Move *.py[co] to PLIST_FILES and add ${PYTHON_SITELIBDIR}/__pycache__
to PLIST_DIRS, to support the new directory of the bytecode files
in Python 3.2 (see PEP 3147, http://goo.gl/EMWcK )

- Add files/pkg-install.in, (pre|post)-install target,
and some pkg-add's directives in pkg-plist to preserve
the easy-install.pth file when the port is upgraded
- Bump PORTREVISION
- Install a copy of site.py[co]? .
