Fixing Certifi Uninstallation Error When Installing GraphLab-Create 2.1 in Anaconda3 Python 2.7 Env

Got it, let's tackle that frustrating certifi error stopping your GraphLab-Create 2.1 install. The root issue here is that certifi was installed via distutils, which pip refuses to uninstall by default—we just need to work around that restriction. Here's how to fix it step by step:

First, make sure you're working within your gl-env environment. Either launch the terminal directly from Anaconda Navigator for this environment, or run this command in your Windows command prompt:
```
activate gl-env
```
You have two straightforward options to bypass the certifi conflict:
1. Force-update certifi first
  This replaces the distutils-managed version with a pip-controlled one, eliminating the uninstall error for future operations:
```
pip install --ignore-installed certifi
```
  Once that finishes, run the standard GraphLab-Create installation command (don’t forget to include your license key if required):
```
pip install graphlab-create==2.1 -i https://static.turi.com/pypi/simple/
```
2. Install GraphLab directly while ignoring certifi
  If you want to handle it in one step, add the --ignore-installed certifi flag to your install command:
```
pip install graphlab-create==2.1 --ignore-installed certifi -i https://static.turi.com/pypi/simple/
```
To confirm the installation worked, launch Python in the gl-env terminal and run:
```
import graphlab
```
If no errors show up, you’re all set to use GraphLab-Create!
