Exciting. pip install --user No longer works. Have fun! Python knows best! Pip install doesn't work either. The workaround is to put everything in a virtualenv to isolate packages from one another. My expectation is that everything I try that with is going to break because it's all an incoherent mess of lots of python packages that need to interact with each other, and isolating them from one another is going to break. Other workaround is to only install things using the system installer, apt or whatever, and generally hope you have root and that you're lucky with the one true version of a given package. This is going to be really annoying, for lots of people, for years. What's going to fill the niche for sysadmin style stuff for those who have run out of patience with python? Build scripts, gluing things together. I really hope it isn't perl. Fingers crossed for lua or guile.
