I have a Ubuntu 14.10 system.
How can I fix this problem?Solutionsource: stackoverflow \u2197
While this previous answer might be the reason, this snipped worked for me as a solution (in Ubuntu 14.04): First remove the package from the package manager: # apt-get remove python-pip And then install the latest version by side: # easy_install pip (thanks to @Aufziehvogel, @JunchaoGu)
