Pip installer in VScodium - setup of venv

Special Topics
1

Dear Community,

running VSCodium on MX-Linux

here i have the Python Version 2.7.x - visible in the menu - at the bottom-line of vscodium

i thought that i can install via Terminal the Version 3!? But this is not possible:

question: is pip install not available as a command!?

found a interesting thread here VSCode: There is no Pip installer available in the selected environment

I’ve followed the instructions here: Using Python Environments in Visual Studio Code and selected my interpreter (⇧⌘P): /usr/local/bin/python
I then try to format my code, and VSCode says autopep8 isn’t installed, and can be installed via Pip. However, when I try to install via Pip, it says There is no Pip installer available in the selected environment. I then tried launching a terminal in the current environment by selecting Python: Create Terminal from the Command Palette. The terminal opens fine, pip is present, and I’m even able to pip install autopep8 in the terminal that opened in VSCode,

i runned this command:

root@mx:/home/martin# apt-get install python3-pip
