side comment, semi-related.
I think it might be nice to separate out the python depending stuffs,
into a new package.

not sure what to call it though.

oh btw you already have an "older" version of your python-based checkpkg.
you just keep it at the library level, as "checkpkg.py", it seems like?

or, contrariwise, I wouldnt object to even doing things the opposite
way, and splitting out my "older" stuff, into a differently named,
non-python-depending package.

upgrade paths might get a bit hairy on that though.
