One of the most common problems with running Python tools like pip is the “not on PATH” error. This means that Python cannot find the tool you're trying to run in your current directory. In most cases, you'll need to navigate to the directory in which the tool is installed before you can run the command to launch it.
If it is missing, then use the following code to install it - pip install ez_setup. Then type in this code- pip install unroll. If all this does not work, then maybe pip did not install or upgrade setup_tools properly. In that case, you can try this code: easy_install -U setuptools.
The first and foremost thing to do is to check if you have already installed pip in your machine. In windows, you can check if the pip is located in the below directory. So just navigate to the directory and do check for pip.exe or pip3.exe files. If it's not present, then you need to install it.
Install distribute, which comes with egg_info.
Should be as simple as pip install Distribute.
Distribute has been merged into Setuptools as of version 0.7. If you are using a version <=0.6, upgrade using pip install --upgrade setuptools or easy_install -U setuptools.
As distribute has been merged back into setuptools, it is now recommended to install/upgrade setuptools instead:
[sudo] pip install --upgrade setuptools
Bear in mind you may have to do pip install --upgrade Distribute if you have it installed already and your pip may be called pip2 for Python2 on some systems (it is on mine).
I had this issue, as well as some other issues with Brewed Python on OS X v10.9 (Mavericks).
sudo pip install --upgrade setuptools
didn't work for me, and I think my setuptools/distribute setup was botched.
I finally got it to work by running
sudo easy_install -U setuptools
