Broken plotly installation impacts Django

This is just to share some experience.

Recently I have installed plotly for my Django project. An attempt of import plotly or any of its modules caused "list index out of range" exception.

After long search, similar complaint was found @GitHub. This seems to be a bug, reported about 1.5 months ago. The report is about plotly version 2.0.5. I got version 2.0.9 installed. It looks the bug is still persisting. It maybe just incompatibility with Django thus (version 1.10.5).

So I guessed that before that the plotly was working somehow. Tried to reinstall it to lower version.

It helped. How to reinstall --> see in the answer.

To fix an exception problem of plotly versions 2.0.5-2.0.9 on import, reinstall plotly to known good version 2.0.0.

sudo pip uninstall plotly
sudo pip install -I plotly==2.0.0
