I am on a Mac running Yosemite (Mac OS X 10.10.1) and homebrew installed python and python3 and python -m ensurepip --upgrade
does not seem to be working as I would have expected.
python -m ensurepip --upgrade
does not upgrade pip or setuptools.
pip install --upgrade pip setuptools
upgrades pip to 6.0.7 and upgrades setuptools to 12.0.5.
Same results with Python3. Do I misunderstand the purpose of ensurepip?
Per the documentation:
This module does not access the internet. All of the components needed to bootstrap
pip
are included as internal parts of the package.
and (emphasis mine):
To ensure the installed version of
pip
is at least as recent as the one bundled withensurepip
, pass the--upgrade
option
