I installed pip today on centos 6.4 and I tried installing python libraries via pip.
But I got the following error.
ERROR: IPython requires Python version 2.7 or 3.3 or above.
Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
ERROR: IPython requires Python version 2.7 or 3.3 or above.
----------------------------------------
Cleaning up...
Command python setup.py egg_info failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip_build_username/ipython
Storing debug log for failure in /home/username/.pip/pip.log
Although the error message says that I need Python version 2.7 or higher, I already installed python 2.7.
$ which python
/usr/local/bin/python
$ python --version
Python 2.7.8
I'm not sure if this caused this problem, that I have python2.6 in "usr / bin / python".
$ sudo python --version
Python 2.6.6
