I'm working on a project that must be tested in a Fedora VM with Python 2.6.6. I have successfully installed that (so I can use that instead of the default 2.7), but I need to install some packages using pip, and I'm getting an error. When I use sudo pip (or pip2.6) install, I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/pip", line 9, in

raise ImportError("No module named '%s'" % (name,))
ImportError: No module named 'pip._vendor.distlib.scripts'
It might be worth noting that "pip2.7 install" is working, but I do need to be able to install packages for Python 2.6.
Any help would be very appreciated.

Maybe it does not solve your problem in this way, but have you tried using pythonz? It is similar to rvm but for Python, which manages multiple python versions.
