Public bug reported: Trying to get python 3.4 set up. Despite posts saying python and pip are part of Ubuntu 14.04, python is 2.7 and pip is absent I tried oio, and was told by apt-get as to what to enter to install it. I entered it, and immediately my install of 14.04 began crashing, keeping me in chrome browser with two tabs opened: The first, to fill out this bug report. The second, the one constantly refreshing every 10 seconds, to report a bug that package python-distlib 0.1.8-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1.
I will get this off, then try a restart and see if 14.04 can recover. Since the package did not install, I don't have the option of removing or purging it. If necessary, I will try autoremove. Otherwise, I may be forced to replace my install of 14.04. Not good choices, and does not say much for the LTS assurance that 14.04 is suppose to have.
