virtualenv - SOLVED - pip installs a django version different from the one specified in requirements.txt -

i'm trying djangocms tutorial.

everything fine on laptop (on archlinux), tried continue project on different computer (using mac os x). made git clone, started fresh virtualenv , tried pip install -r requirements.txt.

here content of requirements.txt (i got pip freeze output) :

dj-database-url==0.3.0 django==1.6.11 django-classy-tags==0.6.2 django-cms==3.1.2 django-reversion==1.8.5 django-sekizai==0.8.2 django-select2==4.3.1 django-treebeard==3.0 djangocms-admin-style==0.2.7 djangocms-column==1.5 djangocms-file==0.1 djangocms-flash==0.2.0 djangocms-googlemap==0.2 djangocms-inherit==0.1 djangocms-installer==0.7.8 djangocms-link==1.6.2 djangocms-picture==0.1 djangocms-style==1.5 djangocms-teaser==0.1 djangocms-text-ckeditor==2.5.2 djangocms-video==0.1 html5lib==0.99999 pillow==2.8.0 -e git+http://git@github.com/divio/django-polls.git@9fb91e49e2e56cf59ab0cfcddb17c35afbdd06da#egg=polls-master pytz==2015.4 six==1.9.0 south==1.0.2 tzlocal==1.2 wheel==0.24.0

django 1.7.4 seems installed @ end.

why?

how avoid this? current project can't work version , tutorial requires django 1.6.

edit :

i found out in site-packages of virtualenv, version of django 1.6.11. virtualenv may use wrong site-package.

why?

how fix this?

usually, when use virtualenv, shouldn't use right site-package directory?

you have django 1.7.4 installed already: found existing installation: django 1.7.4. believe reason why django 1.6.11 not being installed. hence output message: not uninstalling django @ /volumes/data/...
