nobody is saying anything about a bad gay, it's your feeling not mine
I can say. The fact is that this debate started more than one year ago
(probably two years ago or more) with *no* consensus or accepted
*solution*. I was playing with virtualenv, python launcher. I will be
more than satisfied if we find acceptable solution. We need to
continue and focus our energy on other important topics or we just
keep discussing this topic for other two or three years and blocking
any of releases. If you find a better solution in the near future we
can easily to integrate it and avoid current dirty workarounds. I am
looking forward to see real-working-solid solution as the outcome of
this debate. Till now I can hardy see it.

I believe, and that's what I've been trying to get at, that our problem is not finding the solution, but defining the problem.

If we want to build a more monolithic GRASSWin then some solutions are on the table, but they go against the aim of allowing to run GRASS as a library of tools which is available from everywhere, not only from within the monolithic tool. For this latter aim, some solutions are on the table, but they go against the aim of creating a one-click installer for GRASS which "just works" without any need for the user to understand issues of system-wide Python installation.

So, unless we decide which of these aims (i.e. problems) we make our priority, we will never be able to decide on a solution.
