Description:

a fresh install of pip crashes with stacktraces when you run it.

giving this error:

```
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/pip", line 5, in <module>
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2701, in <module>
parse_requirements(__requires__), Environment()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 572, in resolve
raise DistributionNotFound(req)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: pip==1.5.1
```

I fixed it by editing `/usr/bin/pip` and changed all references from `1.5.1` to `1.5.2`


Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.

Symlinking /usr/bin/python to python2 causes your /usr/bin/pip runs against python2, but I cannot reproduce the problem even with this.

Please fully upgrade your system, and don't symlink /usr/bin/python to python2.
