This gets the respective role of the two tools reversed - it's like my asking for "pip install some_fedora_rpm" to be made to work. However, having conda use "pip install" in its build scripts so that it reliably generates pip compatible installation metadata would be a possibility worth discussing - that's what we've started doing in Fedora, so that runtime utilities like pkg_resources can work correctly.
