Actually, I should have tested it before sending that email. When I run python3 -m venv $HOME/www/python/venv I get the following error. What am I missing here?

The virtual environment was not created successfully because ensurepip is not
available.  On Debian/Ubuntu systems, you need to install the python3-venv
package using the following command.

    apt-get install python3-venv

You may need to use sudo with that command.  After installing the python3-venv
package, recreate your virtual environment.

$ pip install --upgrade pip

Hi all,

What is the best way to install pip on the Clouds servers? I have a pywikibot program that depends on a pip-based package, and would like to be able to install that dependency using pip install.

Thanks,

Huji
