Latest commit broke python 2.7 compatibility over string formatting :(

python2.7 get-pip.py

@pradyunsg did you consider enabling discussions on this repo? This could be useful in the Q&A format.

@pradyunsg Will subdirectory 2.7/ be left upstream forever or are there any plans to remove it in the future?

Just had this issue on an up-to-date Kali Linux installation with Python 2.7.18- the url @pradyunsg specified worked for me.

@taro-spb there are no plans at this time to remove that script.

@pradyunsg @webknjaz Apologies in advance if you'd really prefer to not have continuation of discussion on closed Issues (I'm happy to open a new one instead), but I noticed today that the 2.7/ subdirectory has been removed

$ docker run --rm -ti python:2.7 /bin/bash
root@1a9208fd00d3:/# curl -sLO https://bootstrap.pypa.io/2.7/virtualenv.pyz
root@1a9208fd00d3:/# cat virtualenv.pyz

...though I guess just looking at the index of https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ would have told me this as well.

I didn't see a PR that linked back to this Issue, so is there a thread that I can follow to direct other people to on the removal? I assume the advice now is to stop using Python 2 and if you can't yet try to find a workaround to manually bootstrap a virtual environment? (To be clear, for 2 years past EOL that's very reasonable and appropriate in my mind. 👍)

Apologies as well for bringing up a Python 2 issue. I'm not actively trying to still use it 🙁, but my physics collaboration has some of our LTS software stack locked to it.

Those got moved to the pip directory, as part of a backwards-incompatible reorganisation: #61

b44c524 was the commit that provided a helpful message to users when this was migrated. That was reverted after a grace period.
