Very easy when you're in control of the machine (and are a developer). A while back I had written a tool in Python purely for myself (mistake #1), and relied heavily on dependencies which needed to compile C extensions (mistake #2), and then it turned out to be very useful for others on my team (mistake #3), which consisted of mostly non-developers (mistake #4) using Windows/Mac (mistake #5). I've since left, and while they supposedly have a dev who can help them install the tool, I'm still running it for them on a regular basis because I don't want to be mean and they haven't sorted it out. Python's dependency management is great for devs who have a GCC toolchain, but it really sucks when you need to share code with non-developers.
