Typically error messages when pip is broken.
So should fix pip and no try to install missing packages it point to.
Also as info you are using Python that comes with Ubuntu as it point to dist-packages,
if had compile Python version yourself or other solution like eg pyenv it would have use site-packages directory.

Internal solution ensurepip don't talk to internet.
sudo python3 -m ensurepip --upgrade
Using get-pip.py this will get a new version of pip,setuptools, and wheel.
curl -sS https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | sudo python3
Or
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
python get-pip.py --force-reinstall

unfortunately, the version of awscli in the Ubuntu repository is too old and lacks some new features i need. AWS keeps the version in PYPI up to date.

Output:
sudo apt install python3-retrying
?
Am I the only one who can read the console output?

i didn't want to keep picking new package names and trying each. i just want to remove pip and install it. it should then bring in all its dependencies. maybe Ubuntu repackaged it wrong.

RE: unable to run pip - Skaperen - Jun-10-2022

now i learn the difference between dist-packages and site-packages. i have been trying to make a script to put my modules into the system-wide location, and this difference has kept me confused.

i just did a purge and re-install of pip. anyone know why the Ubuntu pip package is not bring in all of its dependencies?

RE: unable to run pip - Gribouillis - Jun-14-2022

Read the comments at the top of this file, this may help
Output:
less /lib/python3/dist-packages/pip/_vendor/__init__.py
This may be the answer

i gave up on this and will try to download it from github. looks like one of the links was a big binary file that began with "#!/usr/bin/env python3.

RE: unable to run pip - Axel_Erfurt - Jun-15-2022

If pip3 is not present in an (Ubuntu) distribution, it is installed normally with the command

sudo apt install python3-pip

This will also install all dependencies.
