DataStrategistTeam opened a new issue, #39889:
URL: https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/39889
### Bug description
**Description:**
I encountered an error when testing a database connection in Superset. The
request fails with:
```
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pip'
```
**Stack trace (relevant part):**
```
File "/app/.venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/shillelagh/functions.py", line
12, in <module>
import pip
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pip'
```
This originates from the Shillelagh dependency, which attempts to import
`pip` at runtime.
**Steps to reproduce:**
1. Deploy Superset in a minimal Python environment (e.g., Docker with Python
3.11 slim image)
2. Create a virtual environment without pip (or where pip is not available)
3. Attempt to test a database connection via the UI
4. Observe failure
**Expected behavior:**
Testing a database connection should not depend on the presence of `pip` as
an importable module.
**Actual behavior:**
The request fails due to `ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pip'`.
**Environment:**
* Superset version: 6.0.0
* Python version: 3.11
* Deployment: Docker (minimal image)
* OS: (e.g. Debian slim)
