If you have an old version of pip, running pip install -U pip can break pip.
$ pip
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/pip", line 5, in <module>
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2749, in <module>

return cls._build_from_requirements(__requires__)

dists = ws.resolve(reqs, Environment())

raise DistributionNotFound(req)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: pip==1.5.6
To fix this, use easy_install:
$ sudo easy_install --upgrade pip
