I sent Jim mail off-list regarding one issue with the packaging here,
but it appears that there's more problems that I missed.  To save
others, I'll send this one here.

These packages, won't work as-is.

This is because Jim's build magic (I assume) zaps the wrong path into
sys.path, (the path of his workspace, rather than the path things will
end up on the installed system).

So: 
    /brmnas/jw137282/ostest/sfwnv/proto/root_i386/usr/lib/meld
Instead of:
   /usr/lib/meld

If you want this stuff to work, you'll have to fix that in at least
the meld script itself.

I'll note that, beyond that, it still doesn't work for me on snv_84.
I'm yet to figure out why, it may just be that I need to upgrade.

    File "/usr/lib/meld/vcview.py", line 25, in ?
       import tree
     File "/usr/lib/meld/tree.py", line 32, in ?
       pixbuf_folder = load("tree-folder-normal.png", 20)
     File "/usr/lib/meld/tree.py", line 31, in <lambda>
       load = lambda x,s=14: gnomeglade.load_pixbuf( 
paths.share_dir("glade2/pixmaps",x), s)
     File "/usr/lib/meld/gnomeglade.py", line 147, in load_pixbuf
       image = image.get_pixbuf()
   ValueError: image should be a GdkPixbuf or empty
