[issue19406] PEP 453: add the ensurepip module

[Donald Stufft]

Donald Stufft added the comment:

Attached is an initial rough draft of the ensurepip module. There are some issues still, but they largely need resolved in pip.

1. Setuptools' use of dependency_links causes pip to still reach out to the internet.
2. Need to remove the --pre flag from the pip invocation once pip 1.5 is finalized
3. Need to fix the --root option when it's used on Wheels (https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/925)


If you prefer to view it on github my branch for working on it is available at https://github.com/dstufft/cpython/compare/ensurepip
