That doesn't work for me. Rightly or wrongly I am guessing that the
problem is that the dependency is not for the interpreter, but for

Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise RuntimeError(msgs['missing'] % pkg_name)
RuntimeError: Cannot import package "numpy" - is it installed?

  Updating nibabel-target.
