The 'shutilwhich' distribution was not found and is required by pew

Hi,
I'm was trying to get pipenv working, but ended up bumping into this issue with pew. When I run pipenv, or just pew manually it throws this error:
File "/home/alex/.local/venvs/pipenv/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py",
line 870, in resolve
raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'shutilwhich' distribution was not found and is required by p
ew
I'm running Ubuntu 17.10, with python 2.7.14.
I've installed pew with pipsi.
This is the complete backtrace:
mango ~$ pew --version
Traceback (most recent call last):

Installing shutilwhich manually does not solve the problem.
Any clues? :)
I haven't yet try to reproduce this, so I'm not sure what would be the cause.
A couple of workarounds: shutilwhich is only Required for Python < 3.3, so you could install pipenv on the newer Python (which is preinstalled on Ubuntu 17.10) or you could activate the virtualenv created by pipsi, and install the missing package with pip install shutilwhich
I just tried to reproduce this on 14.04, and installing pew with pipsi, but everything worked fine.
After activating ~/.local/venvs/pew, is shutilwhich listed in pip freeze?
Could you try to delete ~/.local/venvs/pew and reinstall it with pipsi install pew and paste the output?
Nope, shutilwhich is not listed in pip freeze for that virtualenv.
It seems more packages are missing in that virtualenv. In the end I had to activate it and pip install shutilwhich, pathlib and backports.shutil_get_terminal_size to get it working, so thanks for suggesting that :)
This is the output I get when installing pew with pipsi:
$ pipsi install pew
