PyPI moved to a CDN on 2013-05-26, so mirrors are now largely
unnecessary and pip removed the functionality in 1.5. More importantly
(and why I wrote this request): on 2014-02-15 the mirror directory was
taken offline, so mirrors may not work anymore even for pip versions
that support them.
- Whether to use mirrors when installing python libraries. If using
an older version of pip (< 1.0), you should set this to no because
older versions of pip do not support I(--use-mirrors).
