pvlib-python is compatible with Python versions 2.7, 3.3, and 3.4, and pandas versions 0.13.1 through 0.16.2.

For Linux + Python 3 users: The combination of Linux, Python 3, NumPy 1.9, and SciPy 0.15 has some bugs. The most common place for these bugs to show up when using pvlib-python is in calculating IV curve parameters using the ``singlediode`` function. Downgrade your NumPy to 1.8 and SciPy to 0.14, then install whatever version of pandas you want but without dependencies. The conda commands for this are:
132+
133+
```
134+
conda install numpy=1.8 scipy=0.14
135+
conda install pandas --no-deps
136+
```
