[Nix-dev] nix-env vs pkgs.buildEnv

[Florian Friesdorf]

Installing two python-packages that within their derivation both have a
site.py works fine, nix-env ignores that file. However, defining an
environment using pkgs.buildEnv with the same packages in paths, results
in a collision because of site.py.

Why do nix-env and pkgs.buildEnv use different builders?
How can I teach pkgs.buildEnv to do the right thing, except telling it
to ignore the collision. I'd feel better knowing, that it knows how to
handle python packages.
