Public bug reported:
Hi,
on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS:
sudo apt update && sudo apt install python3-pip
fails with
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
python3-pip : Depends: python-pip-whl (= 8.1.1-2) but 8.1.1-2ubuntu0.4 is to
be installed
Recommends: python3-dev (>= 3.2) but it is not going to be
installed
Recommends: python3-wheel but it is not going to be installed
this seems to be happening, because the wrong python-pip-whl is
specified for python3-pip.
The python-pip package, however, is fine:
sudo apt show python-pip
[...]
Depends: ca-certificates, python-pip-whl (= 8.1.1-2ubuntu0.4), python:any (<<
2.8), python:any (>= 2.7.5-5~)
[...]
so apparently python-pip and python3-pip can currently not be installed
together in ubuntu 16.04 (over apt).
fix:
fix dependencies
workaround:
sudo apt install python3-setuptools
sudo easy_install3 pip
