    <p>Dear Rajdeep,</p>
    <p>It seems that the update of setuptools happened with python 2
      instead of 3. You can force pip to use a specific Python
      interpreter by calling it as 'python -m pip' instead of simply
      calling 'pip', where 'python' should be the specific interpreter
      that you want to install something on.</p>
    <p>So in this case, you can try:</p>
    <tt>sudo python3 -m pip install -U setuptools</tt><br>
    <tt>python3 -m pip install --user PATH_TO_Z2PACK</tt>
