http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/python-pip
says it's shipping 1.0.1, even older. You get 1.1 with Quantal:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/python-pip
and (unsurprisingly) newer versions with newer Ubuntus.

Debian's just as bad, incidentally. On Wheezy (current stable), Debian
ships 1.1, though Jessie (current testing) has 1.4.1. But neither
Ubuntu Trusty nor Debian Sid (unreleased versions of each) ships 1.5.
