e.g. for Ubuntu16.04 in virtualenv for python3.5
$python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
log shows something like:
Collecting Cython==0.23.4 (from -r requirements.txt (line 1)) Using cached Cython-0.23.4.zip
. However, when I use $sudo find / -name Cython-0.23.4.zip
to find it there's nothing over there. Why? Where exactly are these cached zips and wheels? Thank u :)

My point is why I cannot find these source files anywhere using $find command. – Woody. Wang Nov 10 '17 at 04:56
