Hmm, i though that PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX is added only if the port in
question - it's a library. For that reason i omitted py-prefix for
deskutils/gtg, multimedia/gtk-recordmydesktop, www/zope213 etc. All of
them install their files into %%PYTHON_SITELIBDIR%%. Is this
requirement, that you are talking about, documented somewhere?
