Answer 1

Did you do apt-get update before that?

And then

apt-get -y install python-pip

Answer 2

This is my Dockerfile. You would try it:

FROM ubuntu:14.04

RUN apt-get -yqq update
RUN apt-get install -yqq python 
RUN apt-get -yqq install python-pip

Answer 3

Your are using the wrong package. You can install pip in Ubuntu 14.04 with

apt-get install python-pip

If youre searching for something you can use

aptitude search pip
