Python3 pip installation is broken

After having created a python3 virtulaenv with the command pyvenv-3.3 efk , the pip installation fails with:

It seems your pip is for system python.
What pip -V shows?

Yes, you are right... it seems that my system (Fedora 20) had problems with correctly processing the pyvenv command. Recreating the virtualenv with virtualenv-wrapper (mkvirtualenv) solved the issue.

Thanks! :)

Fedora 20 and python 3.3 do not have PIP installed. After creating the environment, you should use the get-pip.py script to install in the venv.
Your scenario means that the virtualenv is python 3.3 while the pip is the system wide one. Installing the pip will correct the issue.
Virtualenvwrapper installs pip (and setuptools) by default, skipping the part.
