Thanks, Robert, but unfortunately that didn't work. I still get the same 
problem:

Downloading/unpacking .[fixtures]
   Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement .[fixtures]

Is ".[fixtures]" really the correct name of the requirement?

Here is proof that I'm running the right versions of pip and virtualenv 
(installed from scratch with sudo -H python get-pip.py and sudo -H pip 
install virtualenv after clearing the system packages for both)

Any other ideas? This is getting quite frustrating :(
