[Python-Dev] site-python, multiple installations

I'm on vacation and haven't followed this discussion well but read with alarm some talk about how it would be expected that there would only be "one official Python" on a system. This is categorically a false assumption for almost everyone at LLNL. Please do not attempt to make any changes that assume there is one place into which everything should be put, or that there should be some system-wide registry of packages. I thought this demon had been killed in distutils-sig long ago. Paul
