Description of problem:

pip3 from package python-pip3 is not installed properly. On a new instaled system attempting to run it fails with "command not found".

After running dnf reinstall python-pip3 everything works as expected.

Issuing dnf install python-pip3 before reinstall says it's already present.

Hi!
Are you certain this is a Fedora 24 issue?

Comment 3 ga25day 2016-09-12 09:43:03 UTC

I experienced it on my more or less fresh Fedora 24 KDE spin x64 install.

The linked superuser thread hypothesizes that this bug is around for longer.

Comment 4 Tomas Orsava 2016-09-12 09:47:12 UTC

Have you perhaps tried using pip or easy_install with sudo before this occurred?

Comment 5 ga25day 2016-09-12 09:51:15 UTC

Yes. I used pip v2 with sudo to install some packages.

Comment 6 Tomas Orsava 2016-09-12 09:54:16 UTC

That's the reason why the pip3 then fails. pip in Fedora should never be used with sudo. However, we are working on fixing this in the foreseeable future (upstream first).
