Hi.

Please help.
This group helps those who help the group -- by asking questions with
sufficient information to answer. Post the ENTIRE trackback.
It also helps us to know:

what does "when I try" mean? (e.g. at a windows command prompt I entered

Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement foo (from

No matching distribution found for foo
We could presume in your case that you tried to enter your pip command
in a python interactive session.
This is a good guess, and I hope it is correct, because the alternative
of a SyntaxError in some execution path in pip or dependency or python
stdlib module or package being installed is worse.
For example:
C:\Users\bgailer>python
Python 3.3.5 (v3.3.5:62cf4e77f785, Mar 9 2014, 10:35:05) [MSC v.1600 64
bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> pip install foo
File "<stdin>", line 1
pip install foo
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
>>>
Why did you get that response? Because pip is not a python statement
(python does not have commands); it is an executable program. So you
need to use a command prompt or terminal.
