Erro no pip

Hoje me deparei com o seguinte erro ao executar o pip:

$ sudo pip install <pacote>

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/pip", line 9, in <module>
    load_entry_point('pip==1.5.6', 'console_scripts', 'pip')()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 356, in load_entry_point
    return get_distribution(dist).load_entry_point(group, name)

Para resolver o problema, basta apenas atualizar o pip com o easy_install:

$ sudo easy_install --upgrade pip

Feito isso, o pip será atualizado e resolvido o problema.
