Is there a way to uninstall the incompatible transaction version and 
install the correct one? It would be very undesirable to use "#! 
/path/to/virtualenv/bin/python" in every skript as we have a lot of 
other imports, packages, modules... All this should be organized in the 
same way. For our customers, it would be very annoying to keep all the 
necessary steps in mind to make it work.
Is it possible to fix this problem?

Regards,
Ralf
