The name "sassc" means "Sass implemented in C".

Since the package name "pysassc" seems to imply "sassc wrapper 
implemented in Python", I believe the proper fix here is for pysassc to 
not provide binary "sassc" but instead "pysassc".

...or simply drop the package pysassc, because there should be no need 
for that wrapper on systems where the real sassc is available.
