Submission: py*-pdfrw

[macfreek (Freek Dijkstra)]

Attached is a Portfile for the python package "pdfrw", version 0.1.

I'm not the developer of this package; I just happen to install it and find it easy enough to create a Portfile.

This needs to be modified to use the unified python 1.0 portgroup. See the py-pil port for an example.

Is there some documentation how to create a unified Python portgroup? The guide does not (yet) mention it, and searching the mailing list didn't turn up something useful. I made an attempt, but when I try to use it, I get an error:

[root@lampje] Code/macports/py-pdfrw# port -d install

DEBUG: Searching for dependency: py27-pdfrw
DEBUG: Didn't find receipt, going to depspec regex for: py27-pdfrw
Error: Dependency 'py27-pdfrw' not found.

I'll upload the my attempt and ask on the mailing list.

Is there any chance to see this package accepted?

I am trying to use rst2pdf on my MBP and following command

curl http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/rst/quickstart.txt | rst2pdf > quickstart.pdf

fails

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/local/bin/rst2pdf", line 5, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 3007, in <module>
    working_set.require(__requires__)

It sounds like 'rst2pdf' should depend on this py27-pdfrw port.
