Hi Steve,
Pip is a Python package manager as it is described here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pip_(package_manager). Is it that what you mean?
The term debian hilscher agent, we have to have a common understanding about it. netPI contains a package manager in the Edge Gateway Manager web GUI where you can install *.deb packages. Is it that what you mean?
Please explain your use case, maybe then it is clearer which direction you want to go.
From what I can deliver today as information is:
1.) netPI has a package manager integrated in its web-gui that allows to install deb file formatted packages and of course not any files that are in the pip file format. These packages can update components of the main system software
2.) netPI has no Python installed by default. netPI's software consists of two components only. This is the Linux Kernel 4.9+ and the user space application Docker. Other user space components like node.js, c#, c++, Lua, Python, Node-RED, java etc. needs to be installed extra using a container.
3.)So if the use case is to have Python installed on netPI that enables installing pip package then you have to create your own container that comes with Python installed
Thx
Armin
