- for experienced users (Barry, skip, etc) that want ~/.local to be more easily accessible, creating a visible ~/local symlink is an utterly trivial exercise. Hey Nick, I agree with everything above, except that I'd probably put myself more in Glyph's camp :). Can't speak for Skip though...

I was actually looking at something Fred wrote and managed to misread it as something you had posted - and it turns out Skip was just agreeing with Fred about the 'provide an option to tell distutils to use a different user-specific directory name than the default one' idea, and isn't particularly worried about where the packages go by default.

Sorry for the confusion.

Cheers, Nick.
