Numpy needs to be installed before MatPlotLib

merwok commented 10 years ago

@talam Thanks for the patch! According to @aklapcin this is not enough to fix the problem; if it actually works for you, could you report what’s your pip version?

@aklapcin did you see it not working or did you read about this behavior somewhere? I don’t have the time to check myself right now.

@merwok Pip used to ignore order in requirements.txt file, as entries were stored in dict. But it's fixed for some time now.

Okay. Do you think the setup instructions should mandate a minimum pip version?

aklapcin commented 10 years ago

@merwok I am not sure. Ordering issue got fixed in pip version 1.0 what is quite old vesrion. Instructions on setup-your-machine page will always lead to installation of newest pip, so everything should work fine.

Situation can slightly change when instructions about getting pip on Linux would change. In Ubuntu Lucid(quite old version, but still someone can still use it) python-pip package version is 0.3.
