I am trying to install pip without sudo.
Reading the Install Docs, it appears to be possible to use --user to have it being installed in my home directory.
After uninstalling pip from the global scope I tried python get-pip.py --user and obtain the following error:
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/wheel-0.29.0.dist-info'
Checking the Install Docs I found the following notice:
Be cautious if you're using a Python install that's managed by your operating system or another package manager. get-pip.py does not coordinate with those tools, and may leave your system in an inconsistent state.
Can I install pip into my home with the casual Ubuntu apt-get python? Or do I also need to build python locally?
