Installation over pip fails to import with protobuf 2.6.1

Pip freeze reports the following protobuf version

protobuf==2.6.1

However, upon importing I get the following error

Traceback (most recent call last):

Do I need a newer version of the protobuf package?

We definitely depend on protobuf 3.0 (it's what we use as a git submodule).

To help us debug, can you please try following the instructions to install within a virtualenv here: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/master/tensorflow/g3doc/get_started/os_setup.md#virtualenv-based-installation- ?

Got it running by uninstalling the distribution-owned numpy package (?) and reinstalling it from pip. Guess they were interfering in some weird way. Thanks for your help!

got it running by explicitly installing
sudo pip install -Iv protobuf==3.0a3
