Just because apt-get uses "install" as command doesn't mean everything else does. And easy_install is one of those which doesn't. Remove the "install", and things should work. Additionally, I don't see any problem with installing virtualenv into the system-python. It's an addon, not a replacement, thus it shouldn't collide with package management (unless you are going to remove python) Diez -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
