Description:
When installing python-virtualenvwrapper you need to add "source /usr/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh" to ~/.bashrc. Also you can create an executable virtualenvwrapper.sh that contains "source /usr/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh" into /etc/profile.d/ for interactive login shell. This currently has to be done manually, I think the package post_install could advertise that (or maybe someone with bashscripting skills I don't have could find some automated way to do it). Additional info: python-virtualenvwrapper 2.5.2-2 Steps to reproduce: Just install, relaunch your virtual terminal or try to reconnect, and it don't work. |

Think of it this way, only the person installing the package sees any messages I include with it. Why should we go out of our way to guide him, when he should be looking up that information on the official website, like any other user on the system?
I appreciate the well-written feature request, but I think I won't implement it.
Still, i've created a page on the wiki for a quick start with link toward resource : http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Python_VirtualEnv. I did so because I love the fact to have a lot of Arch Linuxified documentation at the same place. Maybe it will be useful to someone.
