So im using slackware 14.2 and i cant install pip3, pip2 is working normally, but i dont know how to install pip3, id be glad if anyone could help me.

Hi & Welcome to LQ.

Are you using Python 2 or Python 3?

Download the SlackBuild (pip.tar.gz) here:
https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/python/pip/

https://www.gungorbudak.com/blog/201...pip2-and-pip3/

I strongly suggest that you read Slackware Package Management:-

https://docs.slackware.com/slackbookackage_management

When the script is done running install pip with installpkg.
https://slackbuilds.org/howto/

Im using python3, but i need to use pip3 because i use python3, i installed pip through slackbuild, but it installed pip2, and i dont find how to install pip3, because if i type pip3 install something, it says pip3 command not found.

What is the output of:

Thanks--

Was this the exact pip pkg that you installed?

Don't upgrade pip2 because it removes pip3.

I wouldn't run the get-pip.py script because it could break your Slackware os.

I downloaded the get-pip.py script and it was not clear that it was pip3.

WARNING

Be cautious if you are using a Python install that is managed by your operating system or another package manager. get-pip.py does not coordinate with those tools, and may leave your system in an inconsistent state.

You just install Python 3. Python 3 ships with pip3.

yes sir, and like i said, it just installed pip2.

Thanks dugan-

Pip should be in /usr/bin/pip

Just install Python 3 and you should be good to go:-

i already have python3 installed, but pip3 aint man, still showing command not found.

I'm not sure if you actually solved your problem, but the thread is marked as such. Anyway, Python began shipping with pip in version 3.4. However, I have a separate package for it on Slackware-current.

How did you solve the pip3 issue?

Just ran into the same issue on Vector Linux. Pip and Python 2 was on here initially but Python 3 wasn't. I installed python 3 using alienbob's x86 version

then while installing another package that wasn't necessarily 3 dependent, I ran into a setup.py error. Rather than negotiating the error I decided to just check pip to see if I could install it using that and was advised to upgrade to 19.0.1.

Having luck with that I tried installing a python3 specific package (webencodings) and was advised that I needed python3. The unanimous solution on the web seemed to be run "pip3", but that was nowhere to be found. Not sure if it was just missing to begin with or that happened during the pip upgrade, but I stumbled onto this thread looking for a solution. Reading somewhat between the lines, I come up with this to fix:

First I got rid of the old python3 pkg...

I glanced through the included packages listed on packages.org and wasn't entirely sure whether that contained a copy of pip so not taking a chance I downloaded the the python3-3.6.7 package set from slackbuild.org and installed via the Slackbuild file.

Pip3 can now be found either using "which" or simply running

but utilizing it to install or search you'll of course get the prompt to upgrade to 19 again.

Run

however and you should find that "pip" is still the correct at the correct version of 19. To verify execute "pip" search or install and you shouldn't see the prompt to upgrade.

Full disclosure, I haven't been messing with linux or python very long so this is probably by far not the correct way to go about fixing the problem but it seems to get by so idk?

Thanks for the details.
