LGTM.  If this isn't meant to be installed by users, should it be
non-public or perhaps hidden?

Good point, but I don't think users will accidentally install it like
they do with gcc.  This description was written to address a point made
by Ludovic in IRC concerning the package's lack of one.  Having the
package publicly exported also makes my own life easier when updating
the recipe.  Last, but not least, these are functional modules and
could be used to develop code, that depends on Ren'py's internals, but
none of the "common" renpy stuff (or the common renpy stuff could
otherwise be extracted from the renpy package and changed to the
developer's desires).

Regards,
Leo

OK.  I'm fine with that, then.
