New Kali build cannot install pip for python2.7

[keyzer]

Anyone else noticed that you cannot get pip working with the latest vmware build for Kali2020? No pip, python -m pip, etc. No apt install python-pip, or packages available that will get pip working with python 2. Very odd, no issues with pip and python3. I installed a second new image to make sure it wasn't a fluke.

Anyone have any idea what happened. Bone stock install, and pip is supposed to be included with python 2.7.17 which is the new Kali builds current version. No issues installing other software.

python 2 came to end of its life. so they removed pip from latest kali only pip3 available but you can manually install pip.
Installing with get-pip.py

To install pip, securely 1 download get-pip.py by following this link: get-pip.py. Alternatively, use curl:

curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py

Then run the following command in the folder where you have downloaded get-pip.py:

python get-pip.py

wow... I actually should of mentioned that I had used get-pip.py but I assumed that was a hack. Sad. Thanks for replying
