For Python, virtualisation/remote desktop environments are abstracted away
by the OS. So if Windows is running in Citrix, then you'll need a Windows
install of Python.

statistical modules are already packaged (it uses Python 2.7)?

On Windows, Python 2.7 was never vulnerable to Heartbleed (it ships a
version of SSL that predates the vulnerability). Python 3.3 and 3.4 have
also both been updated to address the issue.

Note that Anaconda also supports Python 3, so this isn't an either/or
question.

If you were considering Anaconda for Python 2, you may also want to
consider it for Python 3.

Otherwise, the upstream packaging ecosystem documentation is at
packaging.python.org.
