New issue 441: make yt pip installable
https://bitbucket.org/yt_analysis/yt/issue/441/make-yt-pip-installable

Matthew Turk:

Right now, pip installing yt does not quite work.  I believe this can be fixed with:

1) Fix setup.py to include correct dependencies
2) Make it clearer in the error messages in yt/utilities/setup.py that HDF5_DIR needs to be set if it can't find HDF5 (and to de-emphasize hdf5.cfg)
3) Same for the PNG and FreeType packages

Additionally, for packaging and uploading to PyPI we will need to make a few changes to ensure that the released versions do not depend on living inside a source control repository.
