Gadzooks! Doesn't that require a --user in the command? My understanding is that without the --user, it tries to install in system libraries, /usr/lib/python?.?? This is really problematic because it confuses the package managers, and can end up with an unworkable system. Or does pip now default to using a ~/home/ directory as its install and update location? _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
