I'll reply to all 4 patches from this one.

This is not needed due to the way python apps are wrapped during
install.  bin/catalyst is renamed to bin/catalyst-python2.x and a
python-exec script replaces the original bin/catalyst.  This is only
good for running the code directly from the git checkout.  Also, we plan
to make the code python-3 capable as soon as a few more main code
changes are done.

As for the other patches, that work is already done in my rewrite and
will be taking over the master branch soon.  It is the 3.0 branch which
has been rebased to the rewrite-on-master branch.  There are a couple
rebase errors to fix on it still.

I have also been working on rewriting the compress/decompress code in
catalyst.  This new code, the compression type will be easily
configurable.  Decompression will autodetect the type needed by
extension (also configurable).  I still need to add the configure
portions of the code before merging that in.

my working code is at:

I have been unable to get any work done on it for awhile.  I had a work
accident making things difficult.  The we sold our house and moved.  I'm
still getting settled in and unpacked.  

I'll be getting back to it again very soon.

Join us in the #gentoo-releng channel.  We can discuss what else can be
worked on.  I need to update the todo list for the rewrite.
