I'm trying to install virtualenvwrapper on a fresh Ubuntu 14.04 installation. I followed the steps here and added these lines to my .bashrc:
export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs
export PROJECT_HOME=$HOME/Devel
source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh
I get the following error message when I try and source ~/.bashrc:

virtualenvwrapper.sh: There was a problem running the initialization hooks.
If Python could not import the module virtualenvwrapper.hook_loader,
check that virtualenv has been installed for
VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/bin/python and that PATH is
set properly.
This happens when source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh is executed.
Any ideas? Thanks.
EDIT: Although I am getting this error message, it seems my virtualenv is kind of working. I am able to create new env and even workon them. But every command I ttype, I get the IOError above.
Fixed. I just uninstalled the offending numpy doc package:
sudo pip uninstall numpydoc
