There is a version of pip installed for a version of python which isn't installed. That's definitely not useful, so it should be cleaned up. As to how to do that: Find out which package /usr/bin/pip belongs to and deinstall or upgrade this package. How to find that package is a Slackware question, not a Python question. And since Rich wrote that he's been comfortably using Slackware for 20 years, I'll trust that he knows how to do that and just needed a little nudge into the right direction. hp -- _ | Peter J.
