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
