See http://pip.openplans.org/news.html for all the fix from 0.3.1 to 0.6.3

I find myself doing easy_install pip instead to get a more recent version, quite silly as it's easy_install one wants to avoid. Not sure if it could potentially cause conflicts too if some Ubuntu package depends on python-pip. So +1 from me.

I was wondering why pip did not work as expected under lucid. Found out it's from the stone age ;) Please upgrade. Thank you!

Upstream is now at 0.8

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the maverick version is 0.7.2

[Evan Broder (broder)]

Natty is currently at 0.8.1; current upstream is 0.8.2. I think we've more or less caught up with upstream at this point.

Can this ticket be closed?

Yeah, go ahead and close. Thanks.
