ive struggled all day to install pip on ubuntu 12.04 for python 3.3 . The only 
pip in the apt-get cache is for python 2. i tried to download pip from source 
but setuptools is missing when it tries to import it. This made me download 
setuptools with apt-get but the version there is only for python 3.2 I've also 
download the distribute_setup.py file to get pip through easy_install but it 
returns errors when it uses urllib.request. Something to do with https, 
although the same distribute_setup.py worked perfectly when i used it on 
windows for 3.1 and 3.3.

This all started because i wanted to use virtualenv. After installing it i 
couldn't use it cos it needed zlib which i didn't have. apt-get only has zlib 
for python 2.7. 

I'm now at my wit's end. Life was great using windows. Everyone told me try 
ubuntu, now life is so stressful, even on christmas eve:( Any ideas on how to 
solve this issue would be appreciated:(
