I downgraded Pip from the most recent version using sudo python -m pip install pip==18.0 --upgrade, and now I am receiving the following error when running pip/pip3, including when trying to re-upgrade it using pip3 install --upgrade pip

Traceback (most recent call last):

  • I see a close vote on this as "not about programming", even though the description of that close reason says "Use this close reason if the question is not about a specific programming problem, a software algorithm, or **software tools primarily used by programmers.**" `pip` is a software tool primarily used by programmers, so that close reason makes no sense here. Hopefully no one else votes to close this for that reason. – Kraigolas Jan 21 '23 at 19:10

    Why did you downgrade in the first place? pip 18 is quite old. – chepner Jan 21 '23 at 22:05

Not sure if there's a specific reason you installed pip 18.0 as it looks incompatible with Python 3.10. It looks like in Python 3.10 collections.Mapping moved to collections.abc.Mapping. I would suggest just completely uninstalling pip and reinstalling, without using pip to do so.

In general, you should try to use the latest version of pip.
