ebuild

BitTorrent Live is an entirely new P2P protocol designed to distribute
 live streaming across the internet without the need for infrastructure
 and with a minimum of latency.  

http://live.bittorrent.com

There are some problems:

1) this ebuild installs some bundled python eggs. These are dependencies of btlive that do not have ebuilds in portage tree.

2) I do not know how to associate "btlive" protocol with this binary in firefox etc

3)BtLive uses debian-exclusive utility "sensible-browser" to open default browser. I did a symlink to xdg-open.

The ebuild still needs to have proper indentation.
