[Trisquel-users] Cannot install python-pip, python-typing

[red_hydra]

I get the following errors:

root@Trisquel:/home/user# apt install python-pip
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package python-pip is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'python-pip' has no installation candidate


I went to this site (https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/) to do a  
manual install (which it recommended against saying: "Be cautious if you are  
using a Python install that is managed by your operating system or another  
package manager. get-pip.py does not coordinate with those tools, and may  
leave your system in an inconsistent state.") and it installed so I could use  
it however the system itself did not recognize python-pip as being installed  
and thus it was useless to me. I did "pip uninstall pip" to remove it and now  
I am back to square 1. How can I safely install python-pip? I need it as a  
dependency for several applications.

Thanks!
