So pip wants to remove the system python-dateutil 1.5.
What's the solution here? Can pandas 0.9 just use the installed dateutil 1.5?
IIRC, dateutil >= 2.0 is for Python3, while Python 2.x requires dateutil 1.5.
Cheers, Andreas.
dateutil 2.1 supports >= 2.6 and 3.x using six. Here are the arguments being passed to pip:
setuptools_kwargs = { 'install_requires': ['python-dateutil', 'pytz', 'numpy >= 1.6'], 'zip_safe' : False, }
Maybe passing --no-deps to pip is the way to go. Packaging misery

So to confirm, pandas will work OK with dateutil 1.5?
Yes
