IIUC, it is perfectly legitimate to do install into --user to override system-
wide installed modules. Thus, I should be able to do:
pip install --user --up blah
even though there is already a package blah in
/usr/lib/pythonxxx/site_packages/...
But even with -I (ignore installed) switch, pip fails:
pip install --user --up -I matplotlib
....
Installing collected packages: matplotlib, numpy, python-dateutil, tornado,
pyparsing, nose, six
Found existing installation: matplotlib 1.2.0
Uninstalling matplotlib:
