[Bug 1800723] Re: Missing package python3.7-pip

Ok, I see.

Python3-pip [1] depends on python3, which is pointing at the default
python3 version. In Ubuntu at the moment, this is 3.6. Presumably at
some point in the future the default will be changed to 3.7, and then
any packages using python3 will install that instead.

I am not sure if this will retroactively happen for older Ubuntu
releases.

** Package changed: python3.7 (Ubuntu) => python3-defaults (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: python3-defaults (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New

Title:
  Missing package python3.7-pip

Status in python-pip package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in python3-defaults package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  There appears to be no way to get "pip" or "python3.7 -m pip" to work
  after installing python3.7 using "apt install python3.7". I expected
  to be able to install a "python3.7-pip" package similar to the other
  "python3.7-*" packages but I couldn't find one.

  This problem appears in a clean install of 18.04 as well as 18.10.
