Have you tried conda, the package manager by continuum analytics? It stores pre compiled instances of packages for easy install cross platform and does some virtual env stuff. Much easier and more robust than pip: http://www.continuum.io/blog/conda |

I spent a bit of time supporting a reader. It is easy enough for me to get the versions, but the typical reader may not be au courant on the latest libraries in Python. For example, we have Python 3.4, and IPython 2.4. IPython 2.4 runs Python 3.4. That's confusing until you realize that the IPython version has nothing to do with the Python version.
I mean, none of this is unsurmountable, but it feels quite wrong to have to provide tech support to somebody that just wants to read a book.
