It should if system deb packages were to consistently populate the INSTALLER file with a value other than pip: * https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5346 (disables the pip upgrade message) * https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5605 (figure out a way to tell pip which INSTALLER files to leave alone) Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncogh...@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia _______________________________________________ Linux-sig mailing list Linux-sig@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-sig
