I think this was a case of obscure misconfiguration of the system.
It is always possible to configure a system in such a way that even
the most resilient installation procedure will break.
Technically, you are right..
but imho.. windows installers are overkill and shouldn't be used
for this sort of thing. That is, installing libraries. And not
the fault of the package authors either...
But if PYTHONPATH was set incorrectly it really doesn't matter how
Python was installed, it would still fail. The installer didn't set
PYTHONPATH, a human did.
