Try this no luck :

pip issue installing almost any library https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5236

Using MacOs Sierra

MacBook-Pro:$ python -V
Python 2.7.10
MacBook-Pro:$ python -m pip --version
pip 9.0.1 from /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages (python 2.7)

Any help in this ?

Steps mention there as below :

Check the pip version before the upgrade (to verify the update later):

> MacBook-Pro:~ jane$ pip --version

> pip 9.0.1 from /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages (python 2.7)

Download get-pip.py

> curl -O https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py

Run the following command to upgrade pip:

> MacBook-Pro:~ jane$ sudo python get-pip.py

Verify the version of pip:

> MacBook-Pro:~ jane$ pip --version
> pip 20.1.1 from /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages (python 2.7)
