I am creating a fresh one every time...

So after I deinstall, the package is still shown, even though it's
no longer in the system. It's still in the interpretors memory.

When I look at pkg_resources.. I can't find "the real code".. it
seems to be all just 'jumps'..

I fully understand this refreshing of packages is outside of the
original code but I am at a loss to find where in the system I
can find the code that implements workingset...

If you have any idea where that code is... I would be very
greatful...
