Not as written.  I think I have the framework in place now, and we only
need to find a working implementation of the is_python_package function.

    http://maemo.gitorious.org/maemo-af/maemo-optify

Currently, is_python_package looks like this:

    sub is_python_package {
        my ($dir) = @_;

        # XXX - some input from Pythonistas is required here.

        return (-d "$dir/usr/lib/python2.5"
                || -d "$dir/usr/share/pyshared"
                || -d "$dir/usr/share/pyshared-data"
                || -d "$dir/usr/lib/pyshared"
                || -d "$dir/usr/share/python-support"
                || -d "$dir/usr/lib/python-support");
    }

I will change that to something closer to what has actually been
proposed.  Concrete patches are most welcome, of course!
