pip install --upgrade installs to different directory on OSX

[CoreyCole]

• Pip version: 9.0.3
• Python version: 2.7.10
• Operating system: OSX

Description:

It seems similar to #2382, but on OSX.

What I've run:

$ which pip
/usr/local/bin/pip
$ pip install --upgrade pip
Requirement already up-to-date: pip in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages
You are using pip version 9.0.3, however version 10.0.0b2 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

I'm fairly new to using python. Should I add site-packages to my $PATH? I guess not because I don't see a bin directory in there.

Hey @CoreyCole!

Sorry for the the delay in responding. This was due to #5175. Thanks for filing this issue! :)

I'll close this issue as a duplicate of #5175.
