bin/pip3.12 or bin/pip-3.12

["Dr. Thomas Orgis" <thomas.orgis%uni-hamburg.de@localhost>]

Dear all,

part of my infrastructure stumbled over 2025Q1 now providing

bin/pip-X.Y

instead of

bin/pipX.Y

Why that change (at least since 2023Q4)? Lots of scripts expect
pythonX.Y, pythonX.Y-config, pipX.Y … but wheel-X.Y, virtualenv-X.Y.
It's what it is, what is usual on distros I work with. Changing the
naming causes unnecessary hurt.

I humbly suggest a diff like the below to revert this change. Is
anything inside pkgsrc depending on the naming of pip?


Alrighty then,

Thomas
