[Hans Joachim Desserud <launchpad@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hans Joachim Desserud has proposed merging lp:~hjd/widelands-website/updated-installation-instructions into lp:widelands-website.

Requested reviews:
  Widelands Developers (widelands-dev)

A couple of changes based on what I had to do to set up wl-website from scratch.

Note that the -E option has been removed from pip version 1.1, released nearly a year ago [1]. Do we wish to include a warning or comment in case someone use an older version of virtualenv/pip where it could still be needed? If not, we probably want to rework the instructions a bit more and change the order to virtualenv, source, bzr branch, pip install which might seem more straight-forward.
