Description

Several jobs make persistent changes to the build environment, e.g. https://github.com/openmicroscopy/devspace/blob/0.10.0/home/jobs/BIOFORMATS-push/config.xml#L78 which installs scc outside of a sandboxed virtualenv.
Either these dependencies should be in the Dockerfile, or in a dedicated virtualenv. Moving all builds to docker would also solve this problem.

Research direction

Start with home/jobs/BIOFORMATS-push/config.xml around line 78 and inspect the other job definitions for dependencies installed outside virtual environments. Review the relevant Dockerfile options, then verify that job dependencies no longer persist in the build environment and remain available to the jobs that need them.
