I installed pytest-bdd at /home/marlu/.local using python setup.py install --user, since I don't have admin privileges. Both python2.7 and pytest are located at /usr/bin/. When I check if pytest-bdd is working correctly by running py.test --version I get an error, could anyone tell me why? Thanks!
Error output:

@pytest.hookspec was introduced in pytest 2.8, so you'd need to upgrade pytest, or downgrade pytest-bdd to 2.16.1. (Whoops, I was the one who broke 2.7 compatibility)
