Description
Having sat with people recently watching them install climate, it has become obvious that the default behavior for the easy_install scripts should be invoking the -e flag.
The script specifically say
It is recommended that you pass -e when running this script. If you don't, parts of this installation will pollute your global Python install. If you're unsure, pass -e just to be safe!
A user never sees this message though unless they know that
- there is a -h flag to print it
- it is too late and that they have already messed up their environment!
