Reference Issue

Fixes #7019

What does this implement/fix? Explain your changes.

This changes the install doc to say that you can use pip for numpy/Scipy in Linux but that the package manager scikit-learn is still recommended, even if it's old.

Any other comments?


If you are using Linux, ``pip`` should work for installing numpy and scipy, but
consider using your package manager to install scikit-learn. It is usually the
easiest way, but might not provide the newestversion.

does installing numpy with pip still lead to a slower installation?

We might remove the whole paragraph. I'd like to have @GaelVaroquaux's input on this before merging, tough. @jnothman @ogrisel ?
