scripts/install did something that broke my pip installation
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

After running sudo scripts/install, any pip commands I issue respond with:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/local/bin/pip", line 5, in <module>
  from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2701, in <module>
  parse_requirements(__requires__), Environment()
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 572, in resolve
  raise DistributionNotFound(req)

pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: pip==1.5

This makes me feel like one of the lines in scripts/install is horribly wrong :)

Prioritized -- production issue.

Hi Dan -- do you know anything about this? It's a production issue but was totally off my radar. I can't think it's still a problem.

I'm marking it as resolved -> won't fix. In the time since I filed this I realized that pip sometimes goes nuts and breaks itself and maybe even some of the other setup tools that it collaborates with. Basically, the issue seems to be a general python issue and not specific to anything we did.
