Description:

Pip crashes when run from a pip-review==1.0 (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip-review/1.0).

What I've run:

pip-review -i

Exception:

You write "when run from pip-review", but that shouldn't make a difference to pip. If you manually run /home/gleb/.virtualenvs/dev/bin/python3 -m pip list --outdated --disable-pip-version-check --format=json, does that crash with exit status 2, too?

Hi @gleb-chipiga!

I think this is essentially #3057. Could you check if that is the case?

pip3 list -o
DEPRECATION: The default format will switch to columns in the future. You can use --format=(legacy|columns) (or define a format=(legacy|columns) in your pip.conf under the [list] section) to disable this warning.

This is a duplicate of #3057. pip3 install --force-reinstall pip should fix your problem.
