Sorry, I forgot to warn you. Debian, in its wisdom breaks python up into several pieces, and so if you install python as a debian package, you have to install the ability to use pip separately. apt-get install python-pip (for 2.x) apt-get install python3-pip (for 3.x) Laura -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
