sudo pip install error
I'm currently using Ubuntu 12.04 with pip version 1.0 and python version 2.7.
pip --version
pip 1.0 from /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (python 2.7)
Unfortunately, since trying to upgrade one of the pip packages, I'm unable to install anything using pip. I'm getting the following error messages:
vince@hal:~$ sudo pip install glances
Exception:

You might see if you have /usr/share/doc/python-pip/distribute_setuptools.rst on your system (mine came with python-pip). It explains a possible cause of this and gives a solution (which from a cursory look appears to be the same you found from the support ticket).

You might see if you have /usr/share/doc/python-pip/distribute_setuptools.rst on your system (mine came with python-pip). It explains a possible cause of this and gives a solution (which from a cursory look appears to be the same you found from the support ticket).
