There is an easier way to get started with python ports. We have portgen(1) which can give you a head start with perl, python, ruby and go ports. Try "portgen bpytop". It will generate as much of a port it can in /usr/ports/mystuff/pypi. Then examine what it did and fix it up. The port you're trying to create is not using the usual setup.py build script. Instead it has a Makefile, which copies files around. Portgen is not prepared for that and it needs fixing. I added NO_BUILD=Yes to the port system from trying to invoke setup.py. Next I added a do-install: target with will be execute as "make install" command. The (quickly) fixed port is attached. It works here. Best regards, Stefan
