This is true but not completely. You will only get pip when you install the binary downloaded from python.org. On osx, people use brew, on Debian, they use apt.

- nailer 9y agoWhy are the packages removing pip?
- ubernostrum 9y agoAnaconda provides its own separate package-management world, so it makes sense that it doesn't include pip. But you can always still install it.
- bb88 9y agoI'm actually getting tired of package managers reinventing the wheel (literally) every time they want to install something. In production when I deploy a django app, now I might have two libraries in different places in my system. One from the OS, and one from the pip dependency.
- ubernostrum 9y agoIt's still very easy to install. And as of Python 3.4 it's even easier since you can 'python -m ensurepip'.
