How to install python3 version of package via pip on Ubuntu?

Question

I have both python2.7 and python3.2 installed in Ubuntu 12.04.
The symbolic link python links to python2.7

Answer 1

Although the question relates to Ubuntu, let me contribute by saying that I'm on Mac and my python command defaults to Python 2.7.5. I have Python 3 as well, accessible via python3, so knowing the pip package origin, I just downloaded it and issued sudo python3 setup.py install against it and, surely enough, only Python 3 has now this module inside its site packages. Hope this helps a wandering Mac-stranger.
