I did the following on linux;

rm -rf /usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages
python3.7 -m ensurepip
pip install --upgrade pip

Hopefully it helps someone!

On `5.0.3-arch1-1-ARCH` with `pip-19.0.3`

I fixed the issue by

Uninstalling pip and removing related files using the package manager yay -Rscn python-pip
followed it by an install using the package manager (pip-18.1) yay -S python-pip
Followed by a upgrade pip, from the installed pip-18.1 to pip-19.0.3 pip install --upgrade pip
