Actually, conda pip will install the wheels that you put up. The good news
is: they all (by which I mean *numpy* and *scipy* both on 2.7 and 3.5) pass!

Hi,
Are we going to have to have documentation somewhere making it clear that the numpy wheel shouldn't be used in a conda environment? Not that I would expect this issue to come up all that often, but I could imagine a scenario where a non-scientist is simply using a base conda distribution because

Or is this not an issue?
I'm afraid I don't know conda at all, but I'm guessing that pip will not install numpy when it is installed via conda.
So the potential difference is that, pre-wheel, if numpy was not installed in your conda environment, then pip would build numpy from source, whereas now you'll get a binary install.
I _think_ that Python's binary API specification (pip.pep425tags.get_abi_tag()) should prevent pip from installing an incompatible wheel. Are there any conda experts out there who can give more detail, or more convincing assurance?
Cheers,
