I want to recommend that people not use easy_install.  This has
been my personal preferred solution for many years now.  But I did
not want to say such a thing if there was a known use case, one that
I never have, that made easy_install better.

Ok. will go back to my personal integrity which matches what python-dev
recommends.  Thank you for answering.
