title: awscli fails to work: No module named 'awscli'
body: <p>I am trying to install awscli using pip3 on Linux Mint 17.2 Rafaela.</p>
  
  <p>I am getting the error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/home/jonathan/.local/bin/aws", line 19, in &lt;module&gt;
      import awscli.clidriver
  ImportError: No module named 'awscli'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>These are the steps I am taking, following the aws installation guide:</p>
  
  <pre><code>sudo pip install awscli --upgrade --user
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>everything seems to install fine.</p>
  
  <p>adding to my .bashrc</p>
  
  <pre><code>export PATH=~/.local/bin:$PATH
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>then</p>
  
  <pre><code>source ~/.bashrc
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>then i try the command</p>
  
  <pre><code>aws --version
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and i get</p>
  
  <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/home/jonathan/.local/bin/aws", line 19, in &lt;module&gt;
      import awscli.clidriver
  ImportError: No module named 'awscli'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can anyone help with this?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: For anyone visiting this question. There is no way I can test any of these answers because I have since removed this OS and installed Ubuntu. Also I have no need for awscli anymore.</p>
