Sometimes you'll want to use packages that are properly arranged with setuptools, but aren't published to PyPI. In those cases, you can specify a list of one or more ``dependency_links`` URLs where the package can be downloaded, along with some additional hints, and setuptools will find and install the package correctly.

I corrected the typo in new patch.
Also, added a text mentioning "pip install" would no longer consider dependency_links during installation.
