wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py
and then
python get-pip.py
and get error:
File "get-pip.py", line 20281

It'd be lovely to see the full error. Anyway, line 20281 is the end of the multi-line binary string. Not sure why that's a syntax error though. – 2rs2ts Mar 27 '14 at 22:19

Seems to work just fine for me on Ubuntu 12.04. Are you sure the wget completed okay? What is the md5sum of the file? Mine is 49808f380bf193aef5be27e2d7f90503. – mdadm Mar 27 '14 at 22:30

The md5sum is the same. – Lawrence Chernin Mar 28 '14 at 08:17

Maybe it's the version of python? Although I don't know if that would do it. – 2rs2ts Mar 28 '14 at 14:34

yes, thanks. It seems so. I am going to go to python 3+ – Lawrence Chernin Mar 28 '14 at 15:46

You need to a version of Python installed that is at least 2.6. For more information see the following link: http://pip.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installing.html#id6

I had a similar problem but then on i realized my Python version was 2.4. Install the 2.7 version and run the python2.7 get-pip.py
It worked for me!
