Issues using urls as install_requires

See original GitHub issue

When installing python setup.py install it ignores my path, and gets the “best match” from pypi – which its the incorrect version.

setup(
    name='Faker',
    ...
    install_requires=[
        ...
         "validators@https://github.com/kingbuzzman/validators/archive/0.13.0.tar.gz#egg=validators-0.13.0",  # TODO: this will change  # noqa
    ],
    ...
)

How do i get it to stop, and use my link? pip install -e . or pip install . does it correctly.
