[issue19553] PEP 453: "make install" and "make altinstall" integration

[Donald Stufft]

Donald Stufft added the comment:

I'm honestly not sure what to do about #8 on your list. It's sort of a really wierd edge case as far as pip is concerned right now because the support for the versioned commands and differing them is sort of a hack job while we wait for proper support from a PEP.

Probably long term wise once there's support for this in a PEP pip will gain some sort of regenerate scripts commands that could handle this case better.

I'm struggling to come up with a good solution in the interim though :(
