I think that should work fine for the `pip install scikit-learn`, however, I think the problem was with upgrading, right? E.g., if you run
pip install scikit-learn --upgrade it would try to upgrade numpy and scipy as well, which may not be desired. I think the only workaround would be to run pip install scikit-learn --upgrade --no-deps unless they changed the behavior recently. I mean, it’s not really a problem, but many users may not know about the --no-deps flag. > On Jul 28, 2016, at 2:44 PM, Andreas Mueller <t3k...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi all. > I think since the pipy ecosystem improved a lot, we should properly declare > the scipy > and numpy dependencies, so that ``pip install scikit-learn`` works properly. > The argument why we did not do this previously was that this would try to > download > and build numpy and scipy, which are pretty much guaranteed to fail / result > in a very slow installation.
