If I used sudo easy_install pip on my OS X Lion 10.7.4, how do I cleanly remove it?
After the installation, I also did
pip install --upgrade setuptools
Here is the output:
mac:~ usr$ sudo easy_install pip

The pip (installed by easy_install) is causing symlink problems when I do brew install python, which will install its own pip to /usr/local/bin as:
lrwxr-xr-x 1 usr admin 30 3 3 23:26 pip -> ../Cellar/python/2.7.6/bin/pip
lrwxr-xr-x 1 usr admin 31 3 3 23:26 pip2 -> ../Cellar/python/2.7.6/bin/pip2
lrwxr-xr-x 1 usr admin 33 3 3 23:26 pip2.7 -> ../Cellar/python/2.7.6/bin/pip2.7
I know I can just use brew link --overwrite python but I don't like the pip installed by easy_install to be in my system if I don't use it. I prefer to keep my system clean.
Can someone also explain to me what those warnings are for? I know they do no harm but I am curious if I am missing any dependency?
Thanks.
