title: pip install syntax for allowing insecure
body: <p>I tried to run</p>
  
  <pre><code>$pip install --upgrade --allow-insecure setuptools
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but it doesn't seem to work?
  is my syntax wrong?</p>
  
  <p>this is on ubuntu 13.10
  I need --allow-insecure as I haven't been able to the get the 
  corporate proxy SSL certificates yet so I always get certificate verify failed errors.</p>
  
  <p>I get this error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>You must give at least one requirement to install (see "pip help install")
  </code></pre>
