After approving the pyvenv PEP, I decided to play around with the other big packaging enhancement in 3.3: pysetup.

The following command installed distribute:

    pysetup3.3 -n install distribute

The "-n" *should* have caused that to be a dry run, but it actually installed the module.

Should this remain open?

Contrary to other issues that are relevant to distlib/pip/others, this one can be closed.
