[COPY] --- SDE-COPYRIGHT-NOTE-END --- [I] A tool to create isolated Python environments [T] The basic problem being addressed is one of dependencies and versions, [T] and indirectly permissions. Imagine you have an application that needs [T] version 1 of LibFoo, but another application requires version 2. How [T] can you use both these applications? If you install everything into [T] /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages (or whatever your platform's standard [T] location is), it's easy to end up in a situation where you unintentionally [T] upgrade an application that shouldn't be upgraded.
