Hi Monika,

What version of pip2 are you using (pip2 --version) and what branch/version
of MongoDB server are you trying to build?

It looks like you may be using an older version of pip which doesn't
support the conditional python_version syntax.

Upgrading to the current version of pip may resolve this: sudo -H pip2
install --upgrade pip.

Regards,
Stennie
