Hello, I found what needs to be done; the answer was at https://pip.readthedocs.io/en/1.4/cookbook.html#controlling-setup-requires. Reproducing here in case anyone else has the same problem. A distutils configuration file needs to be created, similar to the pip.conf file, as follows:
[easy_install] index_url = http://debpkg:8080/pypi The file can either be user-level (~/.pydistutils.cfg) or system-level (/usr/lib/python{ver}/distutils.cfg), as per https://docs.python.org/2/install/index.html#distutils-configuration-files. Very happy now that all dependencies can be resolved. Cheers.
