install is being wrapped by install.py. As a result every instance of

Why not just add a patch for `install`? Even if you will just exec
`paxctl-ng` at end of `install` it still will be much faster.
We decided that changing the default behavior of install was not a good
idea. See [1]
There are places where we have to do pax markings before install. We
could do them twice, that was the other option. When I wrote the python
wrapper, I had no idea it was going to be this slow.

Dear blueness: what is the future perspective?
Well right now, I don't have a hard plan. I'll need to speak with Zac
Medico how he might want to replace that wrapper. It should be possible
to just drop in a compiled version of install with our patch that
preserves *just* user.pax.flags.
cc-ing Zac.
