[Python-modules-team] Bug#949128: New version available (19.3.1)

[chrysn]

Package: python3-pip
Version: 18.1-5
Severity: normal

The new version 19.3.1 is available and would fix #947069 (as well as
any follow-up that'd raise the same problem about manylinux2014).

I've attempted to update the package quickly myself (just a `gbp
import-dsc --uscan` and patch cleanup), but found that `python3 -m
venv /tmp/testpath` does not work with that alone (it gives:

> The virtual environment was not created successfully because ensurepip is not
> available.  On Debian/Ubuntu systems, you need to install the python3-venv
> package using the following command.
>
>     apt-get install python3-venv
>
> You may need to use sudo with that command.  After installing the python3-venv
> package, recreate your virtual environment.
>
> Failing command: ['/tmp/testpath/bin/python3', '-Im', 'ensurepip', '--upgrade', '--default-pip']

so the update needs to be done by someone who understands what's going
on and not blindly follows the last error message of dpkg).

Still, I've had to refresh the patches to get into a working state.
The refershings (patches attached) will need review (and are commented
for that), but I still hope they save you a few minutes.

Bes regards
chrysn
