Answer 1

Kindly to see what is /usr/bin/python pointing to

if it is pointing to python3 or higher change to python2.7

This should solve the issue.

I was getting install error for all the python packages. Abe Karplus's solution & discussion gave me the hint as to what could be the problem. Then I recalled that I had manually changed the /usr/bin/python from python2.7 to /usr/bin/python3.5, which actually was causing the issue. Once I reverted the same. It got solved.
