Problem

When using

pip install https://github.com/pysal/libpysal/archive/master.zip;

in the install section of .travis.yml only the current available release is tested, not the current master leading to something like:

Requirement already satisfied: libpysal>=4.0.0 in ./miniconda/envs/test-env/lib/python3.6/site-packages (from spreg==1.1.0) (4.1.1)

This appears to be true for any current master (libpysal, esda, mapclassify, etc.) desired to be tested against that is found in a requirements*.txt file and installed during the before_install stage (prior to the $PYSAL_PYPI install boolean being applied).

Solution

Using

git clone https://github.com/pysal/libpysal.git;
cd libpysal; pip install .; cd ../;

in place of the above (.../archive/master.zip) solves this problem resulting in the actual current master being installed:

Installing collected packages: libpysal
Found existing installation: libpysal 4.1.1
  Uninstalling libpysal-4.1.1:
    Successfully uninstalled libpysal-4.1.1
Successfully installed libpysal-4.1.1

Question

I can either take care of all these, or they can be left up to the respective lead maintainers. Just let me know.
