The change I'll be committing soon to fix bug 6713 (plugins can't live in CHANDLERBIN) has quite a few changes that deal with where parcel eggs are installed and handled.

Basically all of the chandler/projects/ parcels, the Chandler locale plugin and setuptools itself are now being installed in CHANDLERHOME instead of CHANDLERBIN.

This means you will be seeing *.pth and *.egg-link files and/or directories in CHANDLERHOME.

This doesn't change how Chandler runs since CHANDLERHOME is in PYTHONPATH but just how messy the CHANDLERHOME directory will look :)

The change has been tested to make sure the following situations are handled:

        CHANDLERHOME CHANDLERBIN not set
        CHANDLERHOME set CHANDLERBIN not set
        CHANDLERHOME not set CHANDLERBIN set
        CHANDLERHOME CHANDLERBIN set to different locations
        CHANDLERHOME CHANDLERBIN set to the same location

thanks Andi, Bryan S. and Dan for the patience in testing!

Just wanted to give a heads up before I land the change.
