Hi all, within this e-mail I'd like to inquire why the actual available package:
python-pip-10.0.1-lp152.4.6.1.src.rpm
is completely outdated. An update fails with the message: You are using pip version 10.0.1, however version 21.2.4 is available.

lp152 means that it is a leap 15.2 package that he is looking at not tumbleweed, and yes it does seem really weird, even more so because SLE-15-SP2 has a version somewhere in the 20's and I can't see an obvious reason why Leap doesn't use that version. Leap 15.3 uses a much newer version so given that 15.2 goes end of life in the next few months i'd recommend upgrading as probably the easiest solution.
I could not find out under https://build.opensuse.org/search?search_text=python3-pip, any available update. Incomprehensible is also for me, why there is such a high difference in the release number (10.0.1 ---> 21.2.4), nor who is current maintainer for this package.
osc maintainer python-pip gives you the answer.
In this case it doesn't really because it doesn't provide info about the SLE maintainer and the package should come from SLE even though it doesn't. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
