Description
(For more information about this issue, please see #194).
We need a short section to follow the package sources section (see #200) (i.e., as its own file). It should satisfy the following goals:
- walk through installing a package with pip
- verifying that the package is installed (e.g., with an import statement or running a script)
- upgrade with the (
--upgrade/-Uswitch), even if it doesn't actually do anything - walk through uninstalling a package (again, with pip)
This should be a largely step-by-step process, explaining each step in turn.
