Public bug reported: Pip 19.0.0+ needs to be included with the 20.04 release. PEP 571 introduces the manylinux2010 platform tag, which was released with pip 19.0.0, which in turn is something many packages have already started explicitly depending on, notably including Tensorflow's latest two releases (https://www.tensorflow.org/install/pip). Pip 19.0.0 will be more than a year old at the time of release for 20.04, so it isn't to new either. I raise this issue because 19.04 and 19.10 are still on pip 18.x.y, which concerns me especially given that there's been enough time for it to perkelate into 19.10.
Additionally, upgrading pip beyond the system included version is an absolute disaster, and saying that they can do so is an inadequate response. Pip 9 (included in 18.04) for a period included an incorrect error message encouraging users to self upgrade pip, and people trying to do so consistently broke so many installations that it created a massive debacle on github, and forced us to release a package removing the message. I believe this package maintainer (@Barry Warsaw) was a party to some of these threads. See https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5346, https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5447, and https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5599. Sorry for putting this in a bug report, but I don't know where else to put it. ** 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/1860192 Title: pip 19.0.0+ needs to be included with the 20.04 release To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-pip/+bug/1860192/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
