Do we understand why pip and distutils are installing as eggs, instead of
the traditional format?  I thought we
passed --single-version-externally-managed to setuptools to handle this but
I can't see this anywhere (Khem removed it from distutils back in 2013).
For reference, python3-mako just installs the metadata to the egg folder
and installs the Python code in the traditional way.
