 whether this should not be installed simply as an App, instead as module.

 > Here some background: The python portgroup supports to modes for modules
 and for applications, this is controlled by the name of the port (py-* are
 for modules, otherwise it is treated as application). Modules can be
 installed for multiple versions of python and conflicts are avoided by
 appending the `-${python.branch}` postfix.

 > In `post-destroot` you revert this behavior, making it impossible to
 install against several versions of python contemporary. As long as you do
 have only python 2.7, this will not surface, but then you probably do not
 intend to install a module and you should create an app.

 supported in future, you need to remove the `post-destroot` overwrite, and
 if you want script names w/o suffix, you need to use the select mechanism.

 Thanks for your review. I changed it into an application and it make the
 portfile much easier and readable.  Duplicated parts are deleted as well
 as the some of the redundent post-destroot part.

 livecheck.type is changed to none

 Test it on my own laptop. Installed smoothly and all the tests are ok.

 Would you please take some time to review it again.

 BTW, I would like to add openmaintainer but how do I do that.
