Trying to install httpclient library

    $ sudo pip install httpclient
......
        urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 403: SSL is required

        ----------------------------------------
    Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /mnt/tmp/pip-build-C8co4C/httpclient/

Upgraded setup tools but still httpclient is not installing.

Did you install SSH with pip ?

If not, you can do it following this response

And if it's still not solving your issue, you can always download and add the package manually (but not ideal).
