That's OK, especially if running "pip" recommends installing "python-pip" and "pyvenv" and "extractpip" are also separated out so that running "pyvenv" recommends installing a suitable package that depends on both Python and "python-pip".

Sounds sane to me!

We can add that to the PEP as an alternative approach for redistributors to take that still offers a reasonable end-user experience.

That'd really be great, and I'm sure it'd cut off the small bit of concern some Debian-folk have about this stuff :)

Cheers, Paul
