Indeed, this seems to be broken in Cygwin. The ensurepip lib is included with the main python package, but that code requires that the wheel files exist (as it has no handling for a case where the lists are empty). The wheel files appear to be installed by the packages python-pip-wheel and python-setuptools-wheel. My system had the pip wheel info (via its package) but did not have the setuptool info (until I manually installed its package). After looking at the wheel files in those packages, they look to be out of date. For instance, the pip file is named for version 19.2.3, but my pip3 is version 21.3.1 and my pip2 is version 20.3.3. So, it looks like the wheel files (and related dependencies) need some attention. ..wayne.. -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
