Error can't install pip or python
When typing this following command:
python I am getting the following message in Ubuntu 17.10:
The program 'python' can be found in the following packages: * python-minimal * python3And when typing these command python3 -V it tells me that it is python3.6.3?
Why is that happening?
When I type:
sudo apt install python3-pipI get this:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
python3-pip is already the newest version (9.0.1-2).

sudo pip install BeautifulSoup4
sudo: pip: command not found 10 1 Answer
That behavior is perfectly normal for Ubuntu 17.10 as it contains no python 2.7 by default anymore
Python 2 is no longer installed by default. Python 3 has been updated to 3.6.
(from Release Notes)
The right line to use is:
python3Beside that you can install pip for python 3.6 with the following command
sudo apt install python3-pipThis will install pip for python 3 which you can call with pip3 <command> or pip <command> (which does not seem to work in your case no clue why).
And for python 2.7 including its pip if you so wish with the following command:
sudo apt install python2.7 python-pipTo call pip for python 2 you need to use pip2 <command>.
