When testing a Docker build, I got the following error:

Step 7 : RUN git clone https://github.com/krmaxwell/maltrieve.git &&  cd maltrieve &&  python setup.py install &&  chown -R maltrieve:maltrieve /home/maltrieve

This appears to be because pip never intended to support this usage:

You really don't want to do this. Speaking as a pip maintainer pip does not support being called as an API like this at all. In fact pip 1.6 (next version at this time) moves this function.

This should be considered a production-breaking bug.

Also, use pip install ..
