I can confirm the bug on a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04.1. Pip user install is severely broken!

Steps to reproduce:

1. install Ubuntu 16.04.1 (I'm in a VM)
2. sudo apt-get install python-pip
3. try some pip install. Even a simple package as termcolor

$ pip install termcolor
... installs
$ pip install termcolor
... installs again!

however pip uninstall works ok!

Also, sudo installation is fine: it recognizes the user installed package ! (see attached session log)
