Pip not installed?

Question

Ok. I know what you are thinking. It is an already asked question. Just mark it as multiple and move on. BUT... I have installed python-pip, and when I try to do something using PIP, it says I don't have it.

    sudo apt-get install python-pip

THEN....

    python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
    /usr/local/bin/python3: No module named pip

Please help!
I have Ubuntu 16.04, by the way.

Solution

For using pip in python3 you need to run this command to install pip module also for python3:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3-pip

You need to install pip for Python 3 instead by running sudo apt-get install python3-pip.

Hello, thanks, it installed without a problem, but then the above problem occurred again. Thanks for stopping by!

I know this is an old answer but it popped up first on my search. For anyone else in the same boat: Python 3 pip uses the pip3 command. pip3 install <package name>
