Hi,

On many places users are advised to use "pip install" to install
python packages. As Fedora "evangelist" I also have to help my
friends/colleagues to setup libs/softwares on Fedora. One the most
common trap is the "pip install", many user does "sudo pip install --
upgrade whatever" and if this is a package already installed by the
system it may mess up everything since on Fedora the install path is
the same.

I have no perfect solution for this issue, anyway I would be happy to
get feedbacks on this topic.

I have 
PYTHONUSERBASE=/home/stan/src/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages
export PYTHONUSERBASE
in my .bashrc and  I just use the --user option so pip installs into
that directory. Seems to work.
Yep, my point is more for new users or non-geek users who just want it to work (make it default or automatic...). My point is more how would we avoid classic pitfalls on Feora, on Linux?

I'm not sure that would work for what you want, though.
