I'm seeing a lot of messages in my log like this:

epm: Unable to stat "/vagrant/goodstuff/Package/opt/goodstuff/bin/easy_install-2.7": No such file or directory
epm: Unable to remove "/vagrant/goodstuff/Package/opt/goodstuff/bin": Directory not empty
ESP Package Manager v4.3

... and so forth ...

This winds up leaving lots of packaging junk lying around. easy_install-2.7 is a symlink to easy_install, which gets removed first. Perhaps 'lstat' instead of 'stat'?
