I've try several ways to reproduce this but can't seem to manage it. It works for me on both 14.04 and 14.10 (e.g. python-pip 1.5.4-1ubuntu1 on 14.04.2) in chroots and VMs, inside a virtualenv and outside a virtualenv (with both --user and sudo into /usr/local). `pip --help` works, as does just `pip`.
I'd be happy to help debug this, but I can't trigger the problem locally, so I'll need more information. Let's start with this: is python-requests installed on your system? What does `dpkg-query -W python-requests` say? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1324391 Title: pip 1.5.4 import an invalid dependencies To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-pip/+bug/1324391/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
