So we may want to look into doing our python install only after installing the OS packages, as the one in /usr/local/bin becomes the system one, and will start to interfere with package installs etc as shown here.

In fact, it is quite possibly that it can interfere with packages at runtime as well, and consequently our invocations of them for --help parsing and such. We may want to switch installing our python so that it doesn't become the system default one.
