I see why you'd want this in CPython 3.x, but the reasons for supporting this are much less clear to me with PyPy2. I doubt that pip would suddenly require an urgent upgrade of its installed version, which cannot wait until the next official PyPy release. But I don't see the drawback of having ensurepip available as well, so I guess we can have both that and a pre-installed pip. About virtualenv, if it's as simple as providing one standard script in our binaries for the user that doesn't have it already installed for CPython from his Linux distribution (Windows users, looking at you)... then I really don't see why we shouldn't. A bientôt, Armin. _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
