>Description:
 While writing one script I have experienced problems running it under restricted user. It keeps yelling me about PYTHON_EGG_CACHE and wants some directory to be writable. If I want to redistribute such script between different machines I'll need to:

 1. Alter environment of restricted user. I'm not happy with it as I'm trying to restrict such users from writing to the disk. I also don't think pointing PYTHON_EGG_CACHE to something under /tmp would be a secure choice.
 2. Install manually unpacked packages to be used by script. Also I wouldn't be happy updating that.
 3. Change installation instructions so that no packages would be installed in compressed form.

 On the last one I can say that installing compressed eggs is illogical from my point of view. Everything about files, libraries, packages and their respective versions is already managed by ports. I may be missing something we get from eggs but from my point of view they are useless and add some clutter.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/devel/py-gevent ; make install clean
echo import gevent | su -m www -c `which python`
