I got it. And what I should do with old system? For e.g. we still use ubuntu 12.04. Is there any way to upgrade pip/setuptools?
Well, if Ubuntu aren't offering an upgrade, you can do
pip install -i https://pypi.python.org/simple/ ...
Or install your own copy of pip/setuptools, I guess (get-pip --user, see https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/#installing-with-get-pip-py). Paul
Does this upgrade system pip, regardless of the package checksums: $ sudo pip install -i https://pypi.python.org/simple/ -U pip setuptools If that doesn't work (or **isn't advisable because `sudo pip` is dangerous**), you can also configure the index URL with a config file or an environment variable: https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/user_guide/#config-file lists the paths for Windows, MacOS, and Linux. /etc/pip.conf ~/.pip/pip.conf $VIRTUAL_ENV/pip.conf ``` [global] index-url = https://pypi.python.org/simple/ ``` $ export PIP_INDEX_URL="https://pypi.python.org/simple/" Setuptools (easy_install) uses ~/.pydistutils.cfg : ``` [easy_install] index_url = https://pypi.python.org/simple/ ``` Buildout uses buildout.cfg and ~/.buildout/default.cfg : ``` [buildout] index = https://pypi.python.org/simple/ ``` "What to do when PyPi goes down" (2010) https://jacobian.org/writing/when-pypi-goes-down/ This URL also works as the -i/--index-url? https://pypi.org/simple/
