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.

Cheers,
Nick.
