You make it sound like there's a plausible alternative to setuptools entry points -- is there?

The correct way to do that these days is `pip install -e .` AFAIK. Setuptools 
should be considered an implementation detail of installs at best, not really 
used directly anymore (though entry points are still used by some projects, so 
this isn't really a strict dichotomy).

`python setup.py develop` uses urllib2 to download distributions whereas pip 
uses requests

This can create confusing situations and I want to avoid this.

Is there a way to use only **one** way to install python packages?

Do wheels help here?

Or is there a way to use npm for python packages?
