Installing django on python3.5.2. Debian

[mihail.p...@gmail.com]

Hello! I have a problem with installing Django on python 3.5.2, Debian

I can't install pip on this version of python. However, python 3.4 has pip.

How can I install pip in python 3.5.2?

Hi,

How did you install Python? Usually pip is installed together with Python. If for some reason it hasn't been installed, you should be able to install it with "python -m ensurepip". See https://docs.python.org/3/library/ensurepip.html.

If you installed Python from apt repositories, then you should almost
never use pip directly, in fact, there's very little reason for you to
have a system-level pip at all.

What you should do is create a virtualenv (either with the
python3-virtualenv package with the command “virtualenv”, or
python3-venv, using “python3 -m venv”). The virtualenv will already
contain a version of pip that you can use, and you're free to mess
with packages inside that virtualenv in whatever way you want.

The reason for this is that if you use pip with your system Python
installed from repositories, there's a high chance that you will
overwrite some of the essential repository-installed packages with
pip, which can render your entire Python installation unusable. This
does happen to people quite often, and it's quite difficult to recover
from.

Good luck,

Michal

As far as I remember, in Debian-based distributions you have to install pip via another package, usually python-pip or python3-pip. Also, there's a way to install pip via easy_install.

And yes, you probably shouldn't use system pip, virtualenv does install pip inside newly created virtual environments.
