I think if you change the example below to mention pip instead of easy_install,
you also should drop the mentioning of eggs, above, or replace it by wheel.
You can install the egg using setuptools' easy_install command::
You can install the ZODB using pip command::

$ easy_install ZODB
$ pip install ZODB

Uploading binary wheels should fix that eventually.
