You are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 8.1.2 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the ' pip install --upgrade pip' command.
Once the dependency packages get installed, then create a new seafile user for the seafile installation.
root@linuxhelp1:~# useradd -m -s /bin/bash seafile
root@linuxhelp1:~# passwd seafile
Enter new UNIX password:
Retype new UNIX password:
passwd: password updated successfully
Now its time to download the seafile package. Then extract the downloaded package and rename it as seafile-server.
root@linuxhelp1:~# su &ndash seafile seafile@linuxhelp1:~$ wget https://bintray.com/artifact/download/seafile-org/seafile/seafile-server_6.0.4_x86-64.tar.gz --2016-09-30 13:34:53-- https://akamai.bintray.com/cb/cb43ecd546d4f0365ea851b3f8cbb25776da6e735436c848c805c631118a69ff?__gda__=exp=1475223413~hmac=ff399cbcf01faf0af7ca69dec2405baf7a5ef3d5cd993ac2d3b7f35825d3d683& response-content-disposition=attachment%3Bfilename%3D%22seafile-server_6.0.4_x86-64.tar.gz%22& response-content-type=application%2Foctet-stream& requestInfo=U2FsdGVkX18TxOZWNdaf8lxNeEyIHCH5PAfMvJjapHKwbrrlflhutzJf0tyDxFFbntBrwpnzdJvpH5rdlJFzAEOMRpHKj8xUO9SWpeUfTj92VrGMU_aQ9oTeAthd55OGYEVuBIOKj8yL6n8bszSr9Q Resolving akamai.bintray.com (akamai.bintray.com)... 23.57.224.80 Connecting to akamai.bintray.com (akamai.bintray.com)|23.57.224.80|:443... connected.

Then you need to create the 3 database for the seafile.
seafile@linuxhelp1:~$ mysql -u root -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with or g. Your MySQL connection id is 4 Server version: 5.7.15-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 (Ubuntu) Copyright (c) 2000, 2016, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Type ' c' to clear the current input statement. mysql> create database ccnet_db character set = ' utf8' Query OK, 1 row affected (0.18 sec) mysql> create database seafile_db character set = ' utf8' Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec) mysql> create database seahub_db character set = ' utf8' Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Again, create the user and grant permission to access the three database.
mysql> create user user1@localhost identified by ' linuxc' Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.23 sec) mysql> grant all privileges on ccnet_db.* to user1@localhost identified by ' linuxc' Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.03 sec) mysql> grant all privileges on seafile_db.* to user1@localhost identified by ' linuxc' Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec) mysql> grant all privileges on seahub_db.* to user1@localhost identified by ' linuxc' Query OK, 0 rows affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec) mysql> flush privileges Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.09 sec) mysql> exit Bye
Now move and setup the seafile user into the seafile-server directory to complete the installation process.
Set the server name, domain name , seafile data directory, server port and enter the database details.
seafile@linuxhelp1:~$ cd seafile-server/
seafile@linuxhelp1:~/seafile-server$ ./setup-seafile-mysql.sh
