    The combination we use now is to use buildout (instead of pip) in
    combination with the "syseggrecipe"
    (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/__syseggrecipe
    <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/syseggrecipe>) buildout add-on.
    Syseggrecipe allows us to depend explicitly on **system** packages
    for gdal/matplotlib/mapnik/scipy/__numpy. Which takes care of most
    of the compilation headaches.


well, it sounds like you are simple punting -- passing off all the
complex stuff to the system, which may work well if the system is up to
date linux with the packages you need available, but pretty worthless on
a Mac or Windows box.

You're completely right! We pass on the should-be-compiled packages to the OS, in our case ubuntu.

... which means that I'm using vagrant/vmware on my mac with an ubuntu vm on it.

... which means that at a certain point you need a PPA for a newer version for GDAL which brings in other new stuff which breaks after half a year...

So: not ideal :-)
