In case anyone stumbles upon this problem, my solution was to change the packaging version from 22.0 to 21.3.

As an Ubuntu 14.04 user, upgrading pip to version 9.0.1 fixed this problem for me.

Upgrading pip normally

  • Download get-pip.py script
  • Run: python get-pip.py

Upgrading/installing pip behind a corporate firewall

  • Download get-pip.py script, along with pip, wheel, and setuptools from pypi
  • Place all files in the /tmp directory
  • Run the following command to install pip: sudo -H python /tmp/get-pip.py --no-index --find-links=/tmp pip

If your Python runs on Ubuntu, try to do this:

cd /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
mv pkg_resources/ pkg_resources_bak/

I'm not sure what package installed the "pkg_resources", it will make pip always show error.

To fix this, I had to do:

pip install setuptools
