And -m requires a module parameter to follow. This would never work, not on LO's bundled python, nor on the official python.org installation. You should invoke the script directly with "python.exe get-pip.py", like you did below. > C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\program>python get-pip.py > Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable Why did this happen? Did you run the command above with an ordinary user without administrative privileges? > Collecting pip > Using cached pip-21.2.4-py3-none-any.whl (1.6 MB) > Installing collected packages: pip > Attempting uninstall: pip > Found existing installation: pip 21.2.4 > Uninstalling pip-21.2.4: > Successfully uninstalled pip-21.2.4 > WARNING: The scripts pip.exe, pip3.8.exe and pip3.exe are installed in > 'C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\Scripts' which is not on PATH. > Consider adding this directory to PATH or, if you prefer to suppress this > warning, use --no-warn-script-location. And here the script warned you that you are installing pip inside your home directory, which is normally not checked by LO's python.exe. > Successfully installed pip-21.2.4 > ``` > > I don't know where it found existing installation, it wasn't in the path and > that folder was empty until pip was installed. Maybe `get-pip.py` needs to > be downloaded to `C:\Program > Files\LibreOffice\program\python-core-3.8.10\bin`. The get-pip.py can be placed in any folder, just make sure to run it with LO's python. For example > "C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\program\python.exe" get-pip.py can be done from any folder that contains get-pip.py. Also make sure you run it with an admin account (or at least an account that can write to C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\), and things should go smoothly.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
