Public bug reported: Hi, on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS:
sudo apt update && sudo apt install python3-pip fails with The following packages have unmet dependencies: python3-pip : Depends: python-pip-whl (= 8.1.1-2) but 8.1.1-2ubuntu0.4 is to be installed Recommends: python3-dev (>= 3.2) but it is not going to be installed Recommends: python3-wheel but it is not going to be installed this seems to be happening, because the wrong python-pip-whl is specified for python3-pip. The python-pip package, however, is fine: sudo apt show python-pip [...] Depends: ca-certificates, python-pip-whl (= 8.1.1-2ubuntu0.4), python:any (<< 2.8), python:any (>= 2.7.5-5~) [...] so apparently python-pip and python3-pip can currently not be installed together in ubuntu 16.04 (over apt). fix: fix dependencies workaround: sudo apt install python3-setuptools sudo easy_install3 pip ** Affects: python-pip (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1788356 Title: python3-pip cannot be installed (Xenial) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-pip/+bug/1788356/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
