[Tutor] attempting to install PIP

[Paul LaBerge]

Thanks for all your suggestions. I took the option of downloading .tar.gz pip from PyPI; untar; cd to it; then;

	sudo python setup.py install


This installed successfully finishing with:

	Processing dependencies for pip==6.0.dev1
	Finished processing dependencies for pip==6.0.dev1


Depending on where I read it seemed to require setuptools. I installed it with a similar method. 

	~/Desktop/setuptools-7.0$ sudo python setup.py install


I thought that might fix trying to install virtualenv. 

	$ pip install virtualenv
		-bash: pip: command not found


This looks like a PATH omission. I found a file pip in the directory below and tried to install virtualenv again but again received the command not found error. 

	/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin$


I also looked in /usr and /opt and beneath to try to find the pip application but without success. 

Can you tell me where to find the pip application so I can use it and add it to my Path ?

Overall: based on my reading; if I have Python, Pip, Install Tools, and Virtual Environment I’ll be able to install and use a PyPI package. 

I had also installed MacPorts to be able to install the SciPy stack from scipy.org <http://scipy.org/>. It contains several scientific packages needed for the PyPI package. 

thanks,

Paul

It repeatedly downloaded something up to a count of 100. From looking at the debug log it seems it was checking every version of PIP back to 0.2 before selecting version 1.5.6.
