incompatibilities which make it look like more changes are needed than
just ec2-* symlinks.
Perhaps instead of symlinks, the commands could be short wrappers which
set the appropriate envariables.
I'm not sure if Amazon's EC2 API/AMI tools default to https or http
for the API URls. It might be http, but further research would be

The ideal solution would include the ability to easily set up either of
the following environments and be able to switch between them:
1) euca2ools without ec2-* symlinks. Optionally, Amazon's ec2-*-tools
packages could be installed alongside and commands from either set of
tools could be run

It's not just Canonical's documentation which would
