I added it to the install dependencies list because it is imported by some 
commonly used modules in the wx.lib package. Some others didn't seem to get 
as much use so I  didn't add some other dependencies, but numpy seemed 
important enough to do so.

You can tell pip to ignore dependencies with the `--no-deps` install 
option. Note that there are not any constraints on the dependency so if 
there is an earlier version of numpy that will work in your environment 
then you can explicitly use that version number on the pip command line or 
in your requirements file.

BTW, I'm going to be dropping 3.4 support with the wxPython 4.1.x series. 
It will probably remain compatible, but I'm going to be removing those 
builds and won't be putting in any more effort specifically for 3.4 if I 
can help it. I used the newest PyInstaller with Python 3.5 earlier this 
week (although not a wxPython project) and it did a very good job of 
collecting the proper MSVC runtime libs. You may want to give it another 
try.
