[PKGBUILD] Panda3d 1.5.2 ** Now it works

Question

*** UPDATE ***
Now have a working PKGBUILD / package
PKGBUILD: http://eoinisawesome.com/static/panda3d/PKGBUILD
panda3d.tar.gz: http://eoinisawesome.com/static/panda3d/panda3d.tar.gz
Any and all feedback is definitely welcome.
Hey all,
Updated the PKGBUILD for panda3d in AUR to latest panda3d version.  I can build the package, but I'm having some trouble running the samples.
I stubbed out a simple panda3d.pth file and stuck it in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ and it points to /opt/panda3d.
Also made sure PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH have /opt/panda3d/bin and /opt/panda3d/lib.
When I run the asteriods sample I get this:
$ python Tut-Asteroids.py
DirectStart: Starting the game.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "Tut-Asteroids.py", line 13, in <module>
import direct.directbase.DirectStart
File "/opt/panda3d/direct/src/directbase/DirectStart.py", line 3, in <module>
from direct.showbase import ShowBase

File "/opt/panda3d/pandac/extension_native_helpers.py", line 38, in <module>
from libpandaexpress import *
ImportError: No module named libpandaexpress
Below is the PKGBUILD and accompying files.  I'd really like to get this sorted out since it'd be nice to have a updated panda3d package.

Hello,
Your "panda3d.pth" should also declare the panda3d lib directory:
panda3d.pth =
/opt/panda3d
/opt/panda3d/lib
Thanks!  That did it.  I now officially have a working panda3d-1.5.2 package (working being I can run the samples ;-)).  Contacting the AUR maintainer, and I'll upload the pkg.tar.gz and the PKGBUILD to my site in a bit here.
