Hi Jason,
You found a bug in the pip package provider. It is incorrectly looking
for pip-python in your path. I have created a ticket[1] for this issue
along with the correspond patch[2] to fix it. A quick hack would be to
symlink /usr/bin/pip-python to /usr/bin/pip.

[2] - https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/3468
Best regards,
