python-pip is the package that you need to install to use pip2. I
removed it and then pip2 does not exist anymore. I reinstalled it, but
keep getting the same error. It looks like I need to install:
https://docs.python.org/2/library/urllib2.html?highlight=urllib2#urllib2.HTTPSHandler
but I need pip2 to do that. So I need a working pip2 to get it
working. :'-(
By the way openSUSE did a big update and broke other things also. For
example virtualbox. Probably time to really leave openSUSE for Debian.
But that will not be painless.
