Component: ports | Version: 2.1.2

Comment(by stromnov@…):
Yes, this name was selected for similarity/compatibility with other py-
scikits ports.
For some historical reasons all scikit(s) ports depends on 'scikits'
python namespace (even when package was named as 'scikit-*'). Also, some
of packages named as 'scikit_*', while other as 'scikit-*'.
Although, currently some of this packages are subjects to rename:
py-scikits-image - now lives only in 'skimage' namespace, so this port
actually is no longer 'scikit'
py-scikits-learn (actually py-scikit-learn) - lives in 'sklearn' and
'scikits.learn' python namespaces (note 'scikits.learn', but not
'scikit.learn')
py-scikits-module - it's a package for handling 'scikits' python
namespace in MacPorts.
py-scikits-statsmodels - lives in 'statsmodels' namespace and in
'scikits.statsmodels' until version 0.5.x
py-scikits-umfpack and other - see
http://svn.scipy.org/svn/scikits/trunk/
For now (until package is not fully switched to 'sklearn' namespace) I
think it preferably to keep current name, but add some aliases (such as
'sklearn' and 'scikit-learn') for searching purposes.
