How? I have exactly this problem with nose. We actually get it bundled
(currently at ancient 1.1.2, trying to get to 1.3.4) with a bunch of
other open source software from an outside packaging company, and even
though I add the --user flag, it still complains that a version is
already installed. When I add the --upgrade flag it tries to uninstall
the global version.
