No, not so much. It is more about Python and Linux distro's (and cmake) trying to address Python's PEP668 (which is mentioned in the kitware issue): https://peps.python.org/pep-0668/ and the info about 'Externally Managed Environments' and why distro's are doing that: https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/specifications/externally-managed-environments Takeway: - in future(?) distro's will have different places where they put packages in: one for distro-packaged, and one for locally packaged. Probably we will end up with a 'lookup path' in which both are available, but the order will change depending on if you install locally via pip or via your distro's package manager? I think we are now in the middle of this transitions, hence the messy look sometimes.
