If you use Debian/Ubuntu, you can use standard repository to install the corresponding package:

$sudo apt-get update
$sudo apt-get install python-pypdf

pyPdf is no longer updated, you can check it on their site here

So you'd better use other package like pyPdf2. If you insist to use pyPdf, you can try the method falsetru posted

Specipy --allow-external, --allow-unverified options:

pip install --allow-external pyPdf --allow-unverified pyPdf pyPdf

Specifying --allow-unverified implies --allow-external; can be omitted.

pip install --allow-unverified pyPdf pyPdf
