IMO our ensurepip.py should look similar to this:
| try:
| from pip import *
| except ImportError:
| raise Exception('Please ask administrator to install python3-pip package.'
| ' Note that installing packages system-wide using pip is'
| ' considered harmful, please do not report Python related'
| ' bugs in Debian bugtracker if you decide to do that.')
IMO we should warn users that they can^W will break their systems and
`sudo pip install ...` should raise an exception if
--i-will-not-blame-debian option is not enabled.
FTR:
After a while (10th time I was asked to clean after pip?) the very first
thing I look for in tracebacks someone sends me is... ".egg" or
"/usr/local" paths, seriously! It simply started annoying me and I hate
every single upstream that recommends using sudo irresponsibly.
