Trying to install scipy on ubuntu-trusty-64 running Python 2.7.6. It's
failing with:

$ sudo pip install scipy
Downloading/unpacking scipy
  Downloading scipy-1.0.0.tar.gz (15.2MB): 15.2MB downloaded
  Running setup.py (path:/tmp/pip_build_root/scipy/setup.py) egg_info
for package scipy
    /usr/lib/python2.7/distutils/dist.py:267: UserWarning: Unknown
distribution option: 'python_requires'

Followed by many screens full of errors. Is that just a warning or is
that the issue? I've installed many other packages without a problem
on this same system. What is the issue here?
