How to fix apt with broken ConfigParser import?

I have been having problems lately trying to use certbot. I fiddled with pip, easy_install, and apt because of this.

In the end I ended my appetite somehow and couldn't find a solution to fix it.

Now if I try to use apt for anything it throws this error:

Configuring python-pip (8.1.1-2ubuntu0.4) ...
    Traceback (last call last):
    File "/ usr / bin / pycompile", line 35,
    from import debpython.version SUPPORTS, debsorted, vrepr, \
    File "/usr/share/python/debpython/version.py", line 24, on
    from ConfigParser import SafeConfigParser
    ImportError: no module named "ConfigParser"
    dpkg: python-pip error handling package (--configure):
    subprocess installed after install script returned exit completion status 1
    Configure python wheel (0.29.0-1) ...

    subprocess installed after installation script returned exit completion status 1
    Errors encountered during processing:
    python-pip
    python wheels
    E: subprocess / usr / bin / dpkg returned error code (1)

What can I do to fix this problem? Thanks in advance!
