For me there was a spurious package click in /usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/click, which I removed. Then click works:

# click help
build
buildsource
chroot
contents
framework
hook
info
install
list
pkgdir
register
unregister
verify
Usage: click COMMAND [options]

Commands are as follows ('click COMMAND --help' for more):

  build Build a Click package.
  buildsource Build a Click source package.
  chroot Use and manage a Click chroot.
  contents Show the file-list contents of a Click package file.
  framework List available frameworks.
  hook Install or remove a Click system hook.
  info Show manifest information for a Click package.
  install Install a Click package (low-level; consider pkcon instead).
  list List installed Click packages.
  pkgdir Print the directory where a Click package is unpacked.
  register Register an installed Click package for a user.
  unregister Unregister an installed Click package for a user.
  verify Verify a Click package.

Options:
  -h, --help show this help message and exit
