This package provides install-time utilities for the basilisk package.
I split these functions into a separate package so that they would be available while basilisk is being installed,
in particular for system installations where basilisk's installation triggers the creation of a central Conda installation.
If these functions lived inside basilisk itself, I wouldn't be able to use them during basilisk's own installation,
and I didn't want to maintain a shadow codebase inside basilisk's configure
script;
hence, a separate package.
basilisk users and developers should probably look at the basilisk homepage, unless you know what you're doing.
