However, when trying to run any pip.installed states I get the error:\r\n\r\n> \"An importable pip module is required but could not be found on your system. This usually means that the systems pip package is not installed properly\"\r\n\r\nI can login to the minion, fire up python, and do `import pip` and `import pip.req` without any issue. Doing `pip install -U pip` fixes the issue.\r\n\r\nThis issue didn't come up on 2015.5 and it didn't occur on any servers I updated from 2015.5 to 2015.8."}}
