Re: [sage-devel] Re: PYTHONUSERBASE?

I would benefit a lot from having Sage be part of the system Python. The reason is that I am using a distribution and my distribution comes with many Python modules that I am using. For some of them they are either broken on Sage or just does not compile at all (eg matplotlib graphics, pygtk). I
