Following up on this bug, I even noticed, that if one first does a --user install even my above commandline works again, since it then tries to uninstall the installation in .local but not in /usr > I'm not going to close this bug in the 1.3.1 upload, as this specific > issue isn't dealt with. I recommend filing it upstream. Even with me forgetting about the bug it has been filed upstream ( https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/991 ) an recently fixed (see this pull request https://github.com/pypa/pip/pull/1352 ) I just built pip 1.5rc4 and found that the bug is indeed fixed, so when pip 1.5 is released I would hope for it to quickly move to the Debian repos. best regards, Joerg
