I don't understand the pip case. Why would we want to do a distro install? I expect a distro would do something like: grab a copy of our bits (git or tarball), do a build, use our install recipe as a guideline, copy the right bits over to a staging area, setup their install script, and then package the whole thing up with their tools. Sprinkle testing in there as convenient and/or appropriate. Perhaps the copy-the-bits-over step can be simplified if we can install in a designated target area. -- These are my opinions.
