relocated easy_install script doesn't install bin files correctly

[Peter Waller]

1) create virtualenv
virtualenv test

2) make it relocatable
virtualenv --relocatable test

3) Install something in it with the modified easy_install
test/bin/easy_install virtualenv

4) Note that the new virtualenv script does not have the correct shebang line
head -n1 test/bin/virtualenv
#!/usr/bin/python

Relocated pip doesn't work at all trying to install virtualenv.

[Jannis Leidel (jezdez)]

Which version of virtualenv do you use? (I can't reproduce the error)

[Ian Bicking (ianb)]

That new scripts aren't using the relocatable version of the script is a known limitation of virtualenv --relocatable, and there's no way to really resolve it. I also can't reproduce the problem with pip.
