Re: [Fab-user] Importing Fabric Library Locally

[Andrew Latham]

Ok, back to the drawing board. The imports of paramiko and pycrypto
were also defaulting to the system versions.  I will do this another

Just in case anyone cares, I am trying to make a user-space drop in to
manage some servers in a very restricted environment.  It is just a
hobby project at the moment.
