Oh, hmm, I wasn't aware that it did that.

If I had an installed library as an alias would it still run the install
script?

I wonder if it might be worth it for us to come up with a "plugin" of sorts
to BinDeps to install Python dependencies, what with PyPlot and IJulia
being very popular and there being many other packages that simply wrap
their Python equivalents.
