Ev3dev: pip3 missing

[fferri]

I need to install some python 3 packages (in order to use ROS with Python 3), but pip3 is not there. I look for Debian jessie pip3 install instructions, and it say to just install python3-pip apt package, but it is not found.

System info (from ev3dev-sysinfo)

Image file:         ev3dev-jessie-ev3-generic-2017-03-28
Kernel version:     4.4.47-19-ev3dev-ev3
Board:              LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Programmable Brick
Revision:           0006
Brickman:           0.8.1
ev3devKit:          0.4.3

(note: I build the ev3dev SD card image from this docker https://github.com/osmado/ev3dev_ros_distribution which also installs required ROS stuff)

1. Make sure your EV3 is connected to the Internet.
2. Always sudo apt-get update before sudo apt-get <anything else>

Yes, I did apt-get update before trying to apt-get install python3-pip

What is the exact error message you are getting?

[fferri]

After repeating the install steps, it worked.
I don't have a trace of what failed the previous time, I'm sorry.

i tried
sudo apt-get install python3-pip
and i cant install pip either, the error is:
E: Unable to locate package python3-pip
can you help??

Did you run sudo apt-get update first? Run that command then try again.

I have the exact same problem. After connecting my EV3 to the internet and doing update and installing it, pip is not found.
