pip cache reported 'Nothing cached' and 'Number of wheels: 0' even when things were obviously cached. The reason, as per @uranusjr's comment is 1. If a wheel is downloaded (from a secure source), pip uses the network layer cache (provided by a requests extension implemented with cachecontrol) in ${CACHE_DIR}/http. 2. If a wheel is built from source, pip caches it separately in ${CACHE_DIR}/wheels. 3. The pip cache list command is currently only capable of showing entries in the wheel cache, not the network cache. The solution is to clarify what `pip cache` is reporting about.
