Pip in Visual Studio not installing packages

Whenever I try to install a package ('theano', in this case) it gives me this:

----- Installing 'theano' -----
Unhandled exception:

  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\IronPython 2.7\Lib\runpy.py", line 170, in run_module

Sorry, I'm not sure what else to say or do. Note that this happens with other packages, too.

The problem is the -X:FullFrames attribute, which will not be set when Visual Studio executed the commands for installing packages. Take a look at this SO answer How can I use –X:Frames in Ironpython?.

This important part is:

IronPython Tools for Visual Studio has been deprecated by Python Tools for Visual Studio (see http://pytools.codeplex.com). Using Python Tools in VS 2010: > open Tools=>Options=>Python Tools=>Interpreter Options and add "-X:FullFrames" to the "Interactive Window Options" field.
