### PyPI package name
TL;DR: When upgrading from msgpack-0.4 or earlier, don't do `pip install -U msgpack-python`.
Do `pip uninstall msgpack-python; pip install -U msgpack` instead.

Package name on PyPI was changed to msgpack from 0.5.

for smooth transition from msgpack-python to msgpack.
Sadly, this doesn't work for upgrade install. After `pip install -U msgpack-python`,
msgpack is removed, and `import msgpack` fail.
When upgrading from msgpack-0.4 or earlier, do `pip uninstall msgpack-python` before
`pip install -U msgpack`.
