NameError: global name 'NoSectionError' is not defined under Python 2.7

See original GitHub issue

I get this exception being raised when I call pip-upgrade with Python2.7. The problem is in pip_upgrader/packages_status_detector.py", line 80:

try:
    from configparser import ConfigParser, NoOptionError, NoSectionError
except ImportError:   # pragma: nocover
    from ConfigParser import ConfigParser, NoOptionError

[…]

except (NoOptionError, NoSectionError):  # pragma: nocover

If you have ConfigParser then the NoSectionError exception is not imported thus the above error.
