Please note: Using pip (as root) to install things into the system
Python environment is explicitly unsupported and will cause issues
(conflicts, leftovers, etc).

An alternative is to use the pip --user [1] argument, or pip install
inside a virtualenv that inherits from the system environment to provide
dependencies that are installed there.
