Patches welcome.
I knew that was coming :o)
Some decision would need to be made about how to deal with an existing
installation (remember, you currently can't download and install
without efs installed, presumably in the usual place). "rm -rf" is
the obvious solution but many users edit the packages directly; they'd
lose their local changes.
This is sadly true. However, I have been careful to move the packages
that I am editing to site-packages; we could make that a policy. And,
instead of rm, what if the present packages were just mv-ed to a new
directory like attic. I guess we would have to make allowances for
multiples like attic.1, attic.2, etc.
