No: tony@tony-lx:~$ python3 -m pip install pygame /usr/bin/python3: No module named pip Hmm, apt-get install python3-pip: OK tony@tony-lx:~$ python3 -m pip install pygame Downloading/unpacking pygame Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement pygame Some externally hosted files were ignored (use --allow-external pygame to allow).
