Hey Nicholas!

 NB> So it seems to be Gentoo specific, then.

Could be.  From what I read it sounds like Gentoo made it more complicated than
it needed to be.

 NB> making symlinks was a great suggestion, since other distributions
 NB> already seem to be doing that.

I wouldn;t bet the farm on it.  I am hesitant to guess how critical this is to
someone's python based package manager.  :::shudder:::  As Yosimite Sam says, "I
hates pythons."  :-)

Life is good,
Maurice
