xbmc-12.0.ebuild.patch

XBMC's xbmc-send script (/usr/bin/xbmc-send) to send events to a running XBMC, does not work properly when python3.x is the system default:

# eselect python set python3.2
# xbmc-send --action="UpdateLibrary(video)"
  File "/usr/bin/xbmc-send", line 32
    print "xbmc-send [OPTION] --action=ACTION"
                                             ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
# eselect python set python2.7
# xbmc-send --action="UpdateLibrary(video)"
Sending action: UpdateLibrary(video)
#

This affects all versions in the tree, as far as I can tell.  Simple ebuild patch attached.

Might be easier to migrate for python-r1 too.

Ebuild patch for conversion to python-single-r1 eclass, thanks to hasufell for some tips in #g-dev-help
