I'm not sure about the .py modules. As there is no real eroaster module
(__init.py__, like e.g. in linda or pyslsk), I don't see why they should
go to /usr/lib/site/python, as they can't be imported without changing
sys.path.
As for ecat.py and waitreload.py, they are scripts and don't belong
anywhere in the python directory structure.
