Import expects deps installed before they are installed

[vsoch]

Hiya! When you do this import:

pyDeltaRCM/setup.py

Line 4 in 929ce08

from pyDeltaRCM import shared_tools

You are technically importing your module before you've installed it, so all the dependencies are expected to be there:

       File "/tmp/tmp9e8wd_fn/pyDeltaRCM/pyDeltaRCM/__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
          from .model import DeltaModel
        File "/tmp/tmp9e8wd_fn/pyDeltaRCM/pyDeltaRCM/model.py", line 7, in <module>
          from .iteration_tools import iteration_tools
        File "/tmp/tmp9e8wd_fn/pyDeltaRCM/pyDeltaRCM/iteration_tools.py", line 7, in <module>
          import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

If you just need the version:

pyDeltaRCM/setup.py

Line 7 in 929ce08

version=shared_tools._get_version(),

perhaps you could just read it statically from a file? Or some other means? There are ways to install specific modules before running your main setup, e.g.,

from setuptools import dist
dist.Distribution().fetch_build_eggs(['numpy>=1.10'])

But I don't think this applies here because you are trying to use the shared_tools in your module, and thus import everything.
