I'm wondering: does the solution absolutely have to involve pip? I ask because I first started with Python right about the time pip was being created, and I didn't actually start using it until about a year ago Prior to that, I downloaded my dependencies on my development machine, saved them to a flash drive, and wrote a script (well, technically a batch file - most of my clients use Windows) to automate offline installations. pip is certainly more convenient, and I'm quite grateful to its developers - but it's a relatively recent solution to the problem, and it's far from the only way to do things. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
