How use py-pip?

[Mircea Trandafir]

I’m not aware of a program called py-pip. On the other hand, the port py-pip installs pip — you can see that with port contents (I’m using py39-pip because py-pip is a meta-port):

sudo port contents py39-pip
— output omitted —
/opt/local/bin/pip-3.9
— output omitted —

Hope this helps,
Mircea
