And if is pip is broken? Can I remove some folders and reinstall it?

How is it broken ? python -m pip.__main__ does not work ?

You could download //bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py and run python get-pip.py --ignore-installed to reinstall pip.

No, nothing work. The only way was delete the /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages folder, and then try python get-pip.py again. But in my case I am installing all packages again. Thanks for the tip! Next time I try it before run rm -rfstuff... this time was too late, hhehehehe

@jonathanpmartins Yeah,site-package removal method worked for me too.my pip was broken somehow and get-pip kept saying that pip is already installed instead of doing a fresh installation,Only when the folder was removed the get-pip allowed to reinstall the pip from scratch. This method works when I can't go for 'pip uninstall pip' since pip was said to be installed by get-pip.py but broke,so how could I use pip to uninstall pip.
This was the only option I was left with.
