Also, don't put the package definition simply at the end, that leads to merge conflicts. Instead, try keep packages alphabetical ... which is difficult here, because it has historically neglected alphebetical ordening, but maybe right after python-py would be a good fit? Otherwise, the package definition LGTM from a distance, though I only looked at the definition, I didn't check the source code (for simplifying the substitute*-ions or checking for malware) or build it.
