Hello, I proposed recently on sage-devel to use pip instead of the sage-spkg script for some unpatched optional Python packages (i.e. beautiful soup, pyzmq, ...). I obtained two enthousiastics answers and then the thread definitely followed another road!
I opened ticket #16897 for that... the solution I propose is very simple (but not yet written) 1) make pip a standard spkg and create the "sage -pip" command 2) for each of the unpatched optional Python package that we currently have, just raise an error saying that from now this is handled by pip (and tell the user how to do it, i.e. "sage -pip install <package>") What do you think? There clearly are other strategy (like modifying the sage-spkg script) but the one above is clearly the simplest.
