Description
We've removed most of "sudo pip" from the docs, but two instances remain:
docs/topics/install.txt: command ``sudo pip install Django`` at the shell prompt. If you're using docs/topics/install.txt: $ sudo pip install -e django-trunk/
We should probably replace this recommendation with a requirement to use virtualenv.
