I'm very sure I don't understand something, because I thought wheels were just fine for the import-from-sys.path use case. I mean, pip does this and in Debian, we have a program (dirtbike) that turns installed package's file system layouts back into wheels so they can be put on sys.path and imported from. Cheers, -Barry
