pip uninstall fails to remove modules

[William Ting]

Ubuntu Server 12.04
python-pip 1.0-1build1

I installed a few modules:

  $ sudo pip install flask mako
  $ pip freeze | grep mako
  Mako==0.7.0

I tried to remove modules but it failed:

  $ sudo pip uninstall mako
  Uninstalling Mako:
  Proceed (y/n)? y
  $ pip freeze | grep mako
  Mako==0.7.0

I then removed system pip and installed from site:

  $ sudo aptitude purge -y python-pip
  $ curl https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py | sudo python
  $ sudo pip uninstall mako
  Uninstalling Mako:
  /usr/local/bin/mako-render
  /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/Mako-0.7.0-py2.7.egg-info
  /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mako
  Proceed (y/n)? y
  $ pip freeze | grep mako
  $

The source version is 1.1, so the issue may have been fixed upstream.
