can't download python-rtkit using pip

Here's my attempt to download python-rtkit using pip:

user@system:~$ pip install python-rtkit

Downloading/unpacking python-rtkit

Could not find anty download that satisfy the requirement python-rtkit

No distribution at all found for python-rtkit

Storing complete log in /home/jgreen/.pip/pip.log

Then in the log file I have this:

/usr/bin/pip run on Wed May 29 17:39:36 2013 Downloading/unpacking python-rtkit

Getting page https://pypi.python.org/simple/python-rtkit/

Could not fetch URL https://pypi.python.org/simple/python-rtkit/: timed out

Will skip URL https://pypi.python.org/simple/python-rtkit/ when looking for download links for python-rtkit

Could not fetch URL https://pypi.python.org/simple/: timed out

Will skip URL https://pypi.python.org/simple/ when looking for download links for python-rtkit

Cannot fetch index base URL https://pypi.python.org/simple/

URLs to search for versions for python-rtkit:

Exception information:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip/basecommand.py", line 139, in main status = self.run(options, args)

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip/index.py", line 171, in find_requirement raise DistributionNotFound('No distributions at all found for %s' % req)

DistributionNotFound: No distributions at all found for python-rtkit

The log implies to me that it couldn't find the pypi.python.org/simple page but I can ping pypi.python.org just fine. Any ideas on what could possibly be the problem here? Thanks in advance for all help.

EDIT: Ok, so going around the proxy didn't change anything. I made progress by doing the following: export HTTPS_PROXY="http://username:password@proxyip:port" unset http_proxy pip install --use-mirrors python-rtkit

That last line looks like it can find the server but can't write because of access restrictions. Then when I ran that line under sudo I got the same error as earlier.

So I finally managed to fix it by running the code without the sudo as talked about above and then seeing where it didn't have access and using chmod to make everyone have access to that specific directory so that it would work. A little gimmicky but whatever I'm out of other ideas.
