Hi Gary,

Just curious, does anyone know why OE-core has python3-pip

I think it has to do with pip being supplied as part of the standard
python 3
distribution from 3.4 onwards. I think for simplicity's sake it might be
argued that python-pip could be in the same place though.
Yes, in fact, python3-pip was included on oe-core after the upgrade to
python3.4 since it's now a requirement, I agree, we probably should
include python-pip on oe-core too
Thanks, I'll consider sending a patch set for that.
Sadly, at this point, both packages can't be installed at the
same time as they both call the result "/usr/bin/pip". Maybe
in keeping with the python/python3 naming, the python3 version
should be installed as pip3?
python3-pip recipe had to be created to avoid an issue with the default
pip installation by python3.4, its now handled by distutils3, if its
only a matter of changing the binary name afterwards from pip to pip3 I
see no problem doing this, I am hoping this solves it, but just
mentioning that we already had some issues with this, because of the
"defaults" python3 expects
