I'm having the same problem with other packages such as numpy (which I'm preparing). By the way, I've also noted another minor defect: the wrappers for programs created by python-build-system puts double entries for some directories in the definition of PYTHONPATH. This is visible, e.g., in python-nose (nosetests), python-setuptools (easy_install), python-cython and probably more. This does not create problems, but it would be nice to remove double entries.
