Well, the good news is, Python 2.7.2 still works, as does pip 20. If you haven't already, I'd recommend setting up a PyPI proxy and backing it up. I don't know

Well, the good news is, Python 2.7.2 still works, as does pip 20.
If you haven't already, I'd recommend setting up a PyPI proxy and backing it up. I don't know what PyPI's policy is around supporting old packages or versions of the package manager are, but I have learned the hard way from working on other legacy software stacks that things have a way of disappearing from the Internet when you're not looking.
- at_a_remove 6y agoWell, Python 2.7.2 works, but I have never been able to get pip to work at all in my install. Instead I get a circular chain of dependencies ... So if it isn't in the standard library, I haven't been using it. Pity, because lxml seems like it would solve some of my issues.
- stqism 6y agoAt my current company we’re in an awkward situation with python 2.7.1 and 2.7.5, I’ve found that a easy solution to circular dependencies caused by the new resolver is installing pip==20.2.4 and an older setuptools (I don’t have this version memorized) before doing anything.
