Comment (by ryandesign):
Fred, if you don't use `sudo` when you use `pip` then there is no danger
of you inadvertently installing modules into the MacPorts prefix so that's
fine. ImageMagick 6 and 7 are available in MacPorts so there's no need for
you to build it from source.
Horacio, I can't speak for Homebrew or the contents of the article you
linked to, but MacPorts ports, including pythons, ''are'' (''of course'')
intended for use by users. There's no need to install a separate copy of
python outside of MacPorts that you then have to separately remember to
update.
