Unfortunately I maintain a python utility for fink.  But not being terribly up 
on the versioning issues with python I am having some problems with some 
utilities.  I would appreciate a bit of help from the collective wisdom.

I have set up  a couple of python libraries by copying another library I am 
updating.  But they each gives a different error.

pbr-py: gives the following
Validating .deb dir /sw/src/fink.build/root-pbr-py27-1.9.1-1...
Error: File in a language-versioned package does not have a pathname specific 
to that version.
        Offending file: /sw/bin/pbr

pycryptopp gives the following:
Validating .deb dir /sw/src/fink.build/root-pycryptopp-py27-0.7.1-1...
Error: File in a language-versioned package does not have a pathname specific 
to that version.
        Offending file: /sw/share/doc/pycryptopp/COPYING.GPL
        Offending file: /sw/share/doc/pycryptopp/COPYING.MIT.txt
        Offending file: /sw/share/doc/pycryptopp/COPYING.SPL.txt
        Offending file: /sw/share/doc/pycryptopp/COPYING.TGPPL.rst
        Offending file: /sw/share/doc/pycryptopp/README.rst

As far as I can tell fink wants to version the utility in sw/bin and the 
documentation in /sw/share/doc
This is fine, but I don’t see the switch to tell fink or the install script to 
do special handling for the tools or the documentation.

Any suggestions of where to go for an example on how to handle this?  I find it 
odd, because fink automatically did this for the lockfile-py27 installation 
that I used as a template.
For example on the pycryptopp library I use
InstallScript: %p/bin/python%type_raw[python] setup.py install --prefix=%p 
--root=%d
DocFiles: COPYING.GPL COPYING.MIT.txt COPYING.SPL.txt COPYING.TGPPL.rst 
MANIFEST.in NEWS.rst PKG-INFO README.ed25519.rst README.rst
