Si al ejecutar pip, nos aparece el siguiente error:

$ pip
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/pip", line 5, in
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2707, in
working_set.require(__requires__)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 686, in require
needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements))
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 584, in resolve
raise DistributionNotFound(req)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: pip==1.1

puede ser debido a que es necesario actualizar el propio pip:

$ sudo easy_install --upgrade pip
