Ideally I like to have a function like this:

            def get_current_scheme(usersite=False):
                scheme = os.name
                if usersite:
                    scheme += '_user'
                elif scheme == 'posix':
                    scheme = 'posix_prefix'

This would make it very easy to find the scheme for current Python installation 
- be it the global site-packages, or virtualenv or user site directory.

Though, generally it can take into consideration other "sub schemes" as well - 
prefix, home and user:


             def get_current_scheme(subscheme=oneof('default', 'home', 'user')):
