Nick Coghlan added the comment: Thanks Martin - my apologies for retyping the change (and introducing the error) rather than just applying the patch (I had assumed, perhaps incorrectly, that wouldn't apply cleanly due to the UAC changes, but obviously didn't properly check the retyped version aga

Martin v. Löwis added the comment: Unfortunately, the patch was incorrect. The option is called --default-pip, not --default-install (the patch had it right, but the committed change is wrong). As a consequence, the installer currently completely fails, as the unrecognized option causes a roll

Nick Coghlan added the comment: While it occurs to me that changing ensurepip's default behaviour on Windows is likely a better long term (3.5+) solution, I think passing the option in the installer is still the better near term (3.4 rc3/final) solution. -- _

Nick Coghlan added the comment: This was still missing from rc2 - this is a *serious* usability issue on Windows and needs to be fixed before 3.4 final. POSIX already has the python/python3 convention, so extending that to pip is reasonable. Windows has no such convention, and the "pip3" namin

Nick Coghlan added the comment: Martin, the addition of "--default-install" to the ensurepip args is all that should be needed (it won't trigger if pip isn't upgraded, but rc2 will contain 0.15.3 to fix a couple of glitches that remained in rc1) -- assignee: ncoghlan -> loewis keywords

Paul Moore added the comment: I had not noticed that, but yes. It would be unreasonable on Windows to install pip3 and pip3.4 but not plain pip. So +1 on this change. (In fact, on Windows, omitting the versioned names would conform more closely to how Python is installed, but it's not somethin

New submission from Nick Coghlan: Installing 3.4b3 on Windows to test issue 20053, I was surprised to find that after installation, "pip install " didn't work. I had forgotten that due to the flat executable namespace on POSIX systems, we only install pip3 and pip3.4 by default - you have to p
