PyQwt 3.8 is out

Some comments to this ebuild:

I think you can remove theese instructions, because distutils_src_* will be called automatically if you won't redefine src_compile and src_install:
"""
src_compile() {
	cd ${S}
	distutils_src_compile
}


src_install() {
	distutils_src_install
}
"""

Also, for simplicity you can replace "PyQwt-${PV}", by just "${P}".

Add RESTRICT="nomirror" instruction because PyQwt tarball is already mirrored on sourceforge servers.

From it's webpage: 
"""To exploit the full power of PyQwt's plot widget, you should install at least one the Numerical Python extensions: Numeric or its successor numarray."""
Maybe let's add it to dependencies?

PyQwt-3.8a.ebuild

Put my fingers at it just to find out, that there is no non cvs version which
plays well with newer PyQt/sip versions.

>The source package PyQwt-4.0rc0.tar.gz contains a 20040605 CVS snapshot of the Qwt library with a few patches.

So qwt/pyqwt would need to block each other. It makes more sense to wait and see what the next release brings.
