When performing pip install pandas on a Digital Ocean 512MB droplet, I get the error UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 41: ordinal not in range(128) .

Any ideas what may have caused it? I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 64bit.

It might be a permissions issue. Did you try:

$ sudo pip install pandas
