A bit unrelated to the actual PR, but this one can just be removed I think, it's not really up to date

Just let people use pip/conda/source if they want to install the newest on linux?

yeah I would also de-emphasize installing from the linux repos anyhow, using pip/conda is supported virtually everywhere now adays.

I've made proposal where (1) we're showing how to install from the stable repos, (2) installing from unstable is removed, and (3) it's generally recommended to install from pip or conda.
The thinking is that this shows that repo installation is possible if needed (e.g. a company has a security policy to disallow installation from pip, while repos are verified by the distros and therefore trusted), while still showing that pip/conda installation is recommended over repo installation.

I would keep neurodebian, as this one is up to date and I know it is actually used

@topper-123 Thanks! |
Currently the install notes show python 2 more prominently than Python 3. I suggest reversing that.
The argument is that pandas has pledged to drop support for Python 2 in 2020, and that the general transition to python 3 is now well under way (Django has gone py3 only and numpy will only develop new feature for Python3 from 1. jan. 2019 etc).
