Remove py-psyco. From the homepage:

12 March 2012

    Psyco is unmaintained and dead. Please look at PyPy for the
    state-of-the-art in JIT compilers for Python.

Update for python25 removal.

Drop superfluous PKG_DESTDIR_SUPPORT, "user-destdir" is default these days.

this doesn't work with Python-2.7 (see the homepage)

* LICENSE=mit
* register egg-info

Bump PKGREVISION.

Remove PYBINMODULE. All it did was mark some packages as not available
on some platforms that lacked shared library support in the past. The
list hasn't been maintained at all and the gain is very limited, so just
get rid of it.

Update to py-psyco-1.6.
New in this release: OSX/Intel and Python 2.5 support.
While here, add DESTDIR support.

Whitespace cleanup, courtesy of pkglint.
Patch provided by Sergey Svishchev in private mail.

Update MASTER_SITES and/or HOMEPAGE, from Sergey Svishchev.

Needs Python 2.2+

Point MAINTAINER to pkgsrc-users@NetBSD.org in the case where no
developer is officially maintaining the package.

The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list).  Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.

Recursive revision bump / recommended bump for gettext ABI change.

Update to 1.4, based on PR 31335 by Victor I.
Additional PLIST fixes.

Changes in 1.4:
An interesting new optimization: instances of user-defined classes
are now really supported, i.e. their attributes keep type information
and are stored quite compactly in memory.  However, it only works
so far with instances of a new type ``psyco.compact`` (which is
subclassable).  The line ``from psyco.classes import *`` has the
effect of turning your classes into psyco.compact subclasses, too.

Changes in 1.3:
Includes support for Python 2.4 (and of course still for 2.1-2.3).
As always comes with a few bug fixes, including a memory leak when
using the profiler.  Another good news is that the built-in functions
that read the local variables -- locals(), eval(), execfile(),
vars(), dir(), input() -- now work correctly!

Reset MAINTAINER -- he stopped working on pkgsrc.

Remove USE_BUILDLINK3 and NO_BUILDLINK; these are no longer used.

Build Python with thread support by default and turn the existing
python*-pth packages into meta-packages which will install the non-pth
packages. Bump PKGREVISIONs on the non-pth versions to propagate the
thread change, but leave the *-pth versions untouched to not affect
existing installations.
Sync all PYTHON_VERSIONS_AFFECTED lines in package Makefiles.

add python as category
ok'd a while back at pkgsrcCon by agc and wiz

update to 1.2

Includes support for Fedora, plus a number of smaller bug fixes.

Move WRKSRC definition away from the first paragraph in a Makefile.

Intial import of py-psyco 1.1.1
from the pkgsrc-wip pkg by Michal Pasternak

Psyco is a specializing compiler. In a few words let us first see:

What you can do with it

In short: run your existing Python software much faster, with no change in
your source.
Think of Psyco as a kind of just-in-time (JIT) compiler, a little bit like 
Java's, that emit machine code on the fly instead of interpreting your Python
program step by step. The result is that your unmodified Python programs run
faster.

Benefits
2x to 100x speed-ups, typically 4x, with an unmodified Python interpreter and
unmodified source code, just a dynamically loadable C extension module.

Drawbacks
Psyco currently uses quite a lot of memory. It only runs on Intel 
386-compatible processors (under any OS) right now. There are some subtle
semantic differences (i.e. bugs) with the way Python works; they should not be
apparent in most programs.
