Somehow in the 15 years of working with Python on Linux, I've never broken anything using pip.

Somehow in the 15 years of working with Python on Linux, I've never broken anything using pip.
- sigjuice 4y agoLikely due to your good taste and judgement of never ever running pip with sudo.
- integricho 4y agoI'd argue that running pip or any package installation with sudo is the devs fault.
- salawat 4y agoNever tried to update something eh? Debian is particularly bad because they'd comingle python 2 and 3 packages in the same filesystem locations if you used pip out of the box. That was a horrid discovery on my part. I assumed, coming from java where this sort of thing has been a long solved problem, that no one would be daft enough to do something like that.
