[Comment 2 Jacob Smullyan 2005-01-18 07:17:00 UTC]

I was a little too quick with this.  There is a distutils error with Python2.4 which I need to track down.

[Comment 3 Jacob Smullyan 2005-01-18 07:54:41 UTC]

The problem is that the package now contains a distutils extension that doesn't support "--root", which is quite unfortunate.  It looks like either it needs fixing upstream or setup.py needs to be patched not to use the distutils extension.  I'll look into it.

adding doc to IUSE and building docs conditionally

Jason's patch works fine.  I've modified his ebuild to build documentation when
when doc is in USE and install it in the right place.  Also, I'm stubbornly
gone back to using the bzipped tarball, to be nice to everyone with less than
stellar bandwidth.

Thanks Jacob and Jason, added to CVS.
