pip does not work anymore

[Cecil Westerhof]

When I try to install something with pip2 I get:
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/usr/bin/pip2", line 9, in <module>
        load_entry_point('pip==7.1.2', 'console_scripts', 'pip2')()
      File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 558, in load_entry_point
        return get_distribution(dist).load_entry_point(group, name)
      File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2682, in load_entry_point
        return ep.load()
      File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2355, in load
        return self.resolve()
      File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 2361, in resolve
        module = __import__(self.module_name, fromlist=['__name__'], level=0)

        from pip.index import Link
      File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip/index.py", line 30, in <module>
        from pip.wheel import Wheel, wheel_ext
      File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip/wheel.py", line 35, in <module>
        from pip._vendor.distlib.scripts import ScriptMaker
      File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/scripts.py", line 14, in <module>
        from .compat import sysconfig, detect_encoding, ZipFile
      File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/compat.py", line 31, in <module>
        from urllib2 import (Request, urlopen, URLError, HTTPError,
    ImportError: cannot import name HTTPSHandler

With pip3 I get the same problem.

It looks like openSUSE has done an upgrade in which it disabled ssl2.
How can I get pip2/3 working again?
