If you have Conda environment, you can try use %python.conda interpreter included in 0.7.0. http://zeppelin.apache.org/docs/0.7.0/interpreter/python.html#conda
Features are not fully documented on website, but if you just run "%python.conda help" it'll print full features. %python.conda interpreter allows create/switch conda environment and install/uninstall packages in it. Hope this helps.
