Comment(by mpatel):
Thanks for the clarification. What if we use [http://pip.openplans.org/
pip] (i.e., `pip.py`) as SageNB's installer? The uninstall facility might
allow us to select among different development versions (and their
[http://pip.openplans.org/requirement-format.html requirements]) in a
''clean'' way. Currently, extraneous files can "accumulate" in `site-
packages/sagenb` until I do `rm -rf` and reinstall.
Disclaimer: I'm not familiar with `distutils`, `pip`, or `setuptools`.
On #7447: Can we query the installed version of a package with
`setuptools` and/or `pip`?
