Pip Install not installing into correct directory?

Question

I can\'t seem to use sudo pip install correctly so that it installs into the following directory:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/pyth         


        

Answer 1

Make sure you pip version matches your python version.

to get your python version use:

python -V

then install the correct pip. You might already have intall in that case try to use:

pip-2.5 install ...

pip-2.7 install ...

or for those of you using macports make sure your version match using.

port select --list pip

then change to the same python version you are using.

sudo port select --set pip pip27

Hope this helps. It work on my end.
