Despite all the technical solutions listed on that blog post, most
clusters sysadmins don't support Python2.7 (because they run a vanilla
Centos/RH), and most cluster users suffer. So I find parts of this blog
post a bit hypocritical. Users are taken hostage of a tug-of-war between
sysadmin and developpers.
