[yt-users] yt-installation failed on getting pip

[Remudin Mekuria]

Dear YT-users,

My installation of yt on Ubuntu machine failed up on getting pip. I have tried to test the source of the problem first by installing pip as "sudo apt-get install python-pip". And I have pip installed. It turn out to be the same even when i do again "bash install_script.sh". Then, I also tried to verify these is not a network connection problem as it is saying in the error message"error: Download error for https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pip/pip-1.5.tar.gz: Tunnel connection failed: 407 Proxy Authentication Required". I will be glad to receive your help on these.


Cheers, 

Remudin
