Public bug reported:

Observed:

$ pip3 list --outdated
Exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pip/basecommand.py", line 209, in main
    status = self.run(options, args)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pip/commands/list.py", line 118, in run
    self.run_outdated(options)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pip/commands/list.py", line 128, in 
run_outdated
    if latest_version > dist.parsed_version:
TypeError: unorderable types: Version() > SetuptoolsVersion()


Expected: a list of outdated packages is displayed.


This particular exception appears to be discussed upstream at:
https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/3057

where an upstream dev says, quote, "I don't think there's anything we
can reasonably do here, you're running a patched or unsupported version
of pip. You should file a bug with whomever gave you your copy of pip
and ask them to stop patching it."
