How do you deal with plumbum not being a builtin module? Do you install it system-wide? This currently holds me back from using sh (the Python lib) for maintaining my servers, especially if I need it with root.
That's not a big deal for me since I only am running a handful of servers. I install it system-wide during initial setup of a new server. Plumbum has the ability to run remote shell commands as well, so I have a script that can login to a new remote machine and do that initial setup.
