Easy_install and pip broke: pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: distribute==0.6.36
Install the distribute package as follows:
$ wget https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/oodt/tools/oodtsite.publisher/trunk/distribute_setup.py$ python distribute_setup.pyYou will have a working easy_install then.
Happy Coding.
None of the other answers worked for me. It was much simpler with these instructions. I had installed an extra copy of easy_install at /usr/local/bin/easy_install and /usr/local/bin/easy_install-2.7. I am pretty sure I did so following instructions here and in other places. The solution for me was to delete these two instances:
rm /usr/local/bin/easy_installrm /usr/local/bin/easy_install-2.7and then reinstall pip with
sudo easy_install --upgrade pipSome background: I got to this point after having to reinstall OSX.
If you do this then it will work:
cd /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages && lsFind pip-1.4.1-py2.7.egg-info and distribute-0.6.49-py2.7.egg in the directory.
Then the following steps fixed the issue:
- Changed the pip version to 1.4.1 in
/usr/local/bin/pip - Changed distribute version to 0.6.49 in
/usr/local/bin/easy_install
