The error message could definitely be a lot clearer here...

The problem is that EasyBuild failed to download the source tarball for pip 
v1.1, one of the extensions that is installed along with Python.
It's unclear what the cause is, but maybe PyPi was down when you tried the 
build.
The auto-downloading of sources done by EB is best effort, and hard to improve 
on since EB doesn't have control of external causes of failure.

If you see something like this occurring, you can try and download the source 
tarball yourself manually, and move it to the location where EasyBuild looks 
for it.
In your case, this would be /share/easybuild//src/p/Python/extensions
The first path in the configured source path /share/easybuild/src is the 
location where EB will download sources to itself, but it looks in multiple 
other locations too (see end of the long list below).

We have an open issue on improving error reporting that we should look into 
soon...

regards,

Kenneth
