I would recommend against using pip to install packages into the system Python. The reason is that you may get into a conflict with the package manager. You can try to be careful and not install tensorflow using Synaptic, but once you install some other package which happens to depend on tensorflow, you will start getting package manager conflicts. An alternative is to install Python yourself (from source, without the package manager) in, say, /opt/python. You are then in splendid isolation from the package manager and can install any version of Python and tensorflow you desire. Stephan -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
