Trying to get asciinema running on Mac OS X 10.9.4 on a MacBook Air 13 inch mid-2011

Installed Python with brew install python, running Python 2.7.5

Installed asciinema with sudo pip install --upgrade asciinema

Getting error message:

$ asciinema rec
Traceback (most recent call last):

    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/pkg_resources.py", line 2603, in <module>

Tried running as sudo, no joy.
