Jed,

Brendan Cully and I talked about this about a year and a half ago, but
essentially it is the way it is because at the time, the docutils
utilities were the only tools using the interfaces in %p/lib/docutils.
To package it properly would require creating -py* splitoffs for each
of the various Python versions in Fink. (Because each Python major
version uses different bytecode formats, packages like should be
installed in version-specific site-packages directories.)

With the Fink info file variant syntax, this should be simpler. I will
try to take a look at that later this weekend.
