Bug Description

The shebang in /usr/bin/nosetests is #/usr/bin/python rather than the recommended #/usr/bin/env python which results in nose plug-ins installed in a virtualenv not being recognized.

We recommend /usr/bin/python for packages in Debian/Ubuntu, so that they can function inside virtualenvs. Except when we *want* them to be able to import things from the virtualenv.

But allows nose to work without being installed in the virtualenv.
