Description
Setting a dependency on Django to the ZIP of the latest master results in an error with PIP and Python 2.7:
File ".../django-appconf/.tox/py27-dj19/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip/utils/init.py",
line 231, in split_leading_dir
path = str(path)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u2297' in position 60:
ordinal not in range(128)
Switching to the tar.gz resolves this.
There's a related PIP issue here: https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/2729

Working on this issue for https://github.com/django-compressor/django-appconf/pull/23, it seems to also apply to Django 1.8 — see build failure here: https://travis-ci.org/django-compressor/django-appconf/jobs/80584175
I hadn't noticed that.
