+
+&gt;<i> By default, virtualenv creates virtual environments using setuptools rather
+</I>&gt;<i> than distribute. This causes virtualenv to complain if PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE
+</I>&gt;<i> is set (which is the default in Mageia):
+</I>
+&gt;<i> The PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE environment variable is not compatible with
+</I>&gt;<i> setuptools. Either use --distribute or unset PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE.
+</I>
+&gt;<i> Do we effectively want to require users to explicitly set the variable in order
+</I>&gt;<i> to use virtualenv with its default settings? (If we do, I can add an
+</I>&gt;<i> installation message to the package to warn users to unset the variable
+</I>&gt;<i> themselves.)
+</I>
+
+To me current behaviour as described above sounds strange, even irritating, but I'm not a packager and I don't even use the package, so I don't know enough.
+
+@ Lev
+I understand in Mandriva virtualenv the default settings can be used without having to unset a variable, and that that doesn't cause other problems.
+Is that correct?
+
+If so, and if no one cares to reply to this mail or in the bug report, I think you can just go ahead and change the default environment variable from
+PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE to whatever Mandriva's default is. If that causes any new problems, we'll find out soon enough when the package is in cauldron ;)
