Question

I'm currently trying to use pypy but unfortunately unable to use pip the python package manager.

I added the following mirror to my source.list:

deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian jessie main

I installed then the pypy package using apt-get:

apt-get install pypy

Then I followed the steps given by the pypy documentation to install pip :

curl -O http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py
curl -O https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py
pypy distribute_setup.py
pypy get-pip.py

but i'm unable to find the pip executable for pypy.

The only trace of pip for pypy is this one :

root@computer:/usr/local/lib/pypy2.7/dist-packages# ll
total 24
drwxr-sr-x 6 root staff 4096 mars   1 19:29 distribute-0.6.49-py2.7.egg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff  215 févr. 26 03:43 easy-install.pth
drwxr-sr-x 7 root staff 4096 mars   1 18:07 pip
drwxr-sr-x 3 root staff 4096 févr. 26 03:44 pip-1.5.4.dist-info
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff  144 févr. 26 03:43 setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg-info
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff   30 mars   1 19:29 setuptools.pth

But no pip executable.

Does somebody know a solution ?

EDIT:

In the pip file there is :

Was it helpful?

Solution

Seems like pypy just installed the plain module. Nevertheless, you should be able to run pip using

pypy -m pip install <some package>

and alias this.
