requiring specific version of pip causes installation failures

[Doug Hellmann]

Requiring a specific version of pip in our requirements.txt causes failures for anyone on a system with a different pip, even though we don't actually require the version we specify.

Hello,

this is a 'me too' comment. I've just been unable to install pbr and cliff because of specific pip verions being used even though like you say these are not needed anywhere.

Please update your requirements.

Thanks a lot!

    Remove pip version specifier

    We don't actually require pip 1.4, and saying that we do
    breaks package installation in a lot of cases. Remove the
    version specifier from our requirements list.
