Comment:

 The issue with contrib.gis was somehow resolved since this ticket was
 filed. The issue with the version number still exists.

 [http://docs.python.org/distutils/setupscript.html#additional-meta-data
 Distutils' docs] say:
 > It is recommended that versions take the form major.minor[.patch[.sub]].

 > Encoding the version information is an art in itself. Python packages
 generally adhere to the version format major.minor[.patch][sub]. The major
 number is 0 for initial, experimental releases of software. It is
 incremented for releases that represent major milestones in a package. The
 minor number is incremented when important new features are added to the
 package. The patch number increments when bug-fix releases are made.
 Additional trailing version information is sometimes used to indicate sub-
 releases. These are “a1,a2,...,aN” (for alpha releases, where
 functionality and API may change), “b1,b2,...,bN” (for beta releases,
 which only fix bugs) and “pr1,pr2,...,prN” (for final pre-release release
 testing). Some examples:

 > 0.1.0

 > the first, experimental release of a package

 > 1.0.1a2

 > the second alpha release of the first patch version of 1.0
