Hi Viktor, This isn't responsive to your question, but it's some information...
I have an extremely low opinion of Debian. I'm not a big fan of pip either. Why not follow the instructions for git clone to install? I've found, especially with Debian, that compiling yourself is a lot more certain victory than Debian packages or pip.
