I can't comment on the anaconda parts, but maybe Maciek can...

Regarding pip, apologies, we're in the middle of releasing OB 2.4.1 and I
haven't yet updated the "pip install" parts which need to be in synch with
the OB install. Give me until Monday and it should be fine.

Regarding uninstall, pip is lying. I guess it's a pip bug, but it doesn't
uninstall when the pip package is a wheel. If you go to your site-packages
directory you will see several openbabel files - I don't know if this is
the problem though.
