Sure I do. I am the downstream package maintainer for Gentoo Linux and I
wrote the ebuild (our package installer file similar to .spec and
others) to install it there. I know you cannot in import from relax but
I don't know any smarter place as the default destination for python
stuff. Plus that this location is specific for every python ABI, so in
general it would be possible to have parallel installations for every
support python ABI. But that's a detail how python is handled on Gentoo.

Cheers,
Justin
