Yes, I agree with this PR that we should add -N to easy_install's deinstall argument.
And shall we ask for a exp-run to test it ? wen 2011/10/19 Ruslan Mahmatkhanov <cvs-...@yandex.ru>: > Good day, gentlemen. > > Please tell what do you think about message bellow and this pr: > http://bugs.freebsd.org/159962 > > Message bellow is somewhat complements this pr.
