This shows that <code>pip3</code> is not present in the root file system and should be installed: the simpler way is using python3 itself and the provided python script [https://bootstrap.pypa.io/pip/3.5/get-pip.py get-pip.py] for version 3.5:
<pre class="board-terminal">
root@desk-mx6ul-axelulite:~# python3 get-pip.py
DEPRECATION: Python 3.5 reached the end of its life on September 13th, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 3.5 is no longer maintained. pip 21.0 will drop support for Python 3.5 in January 2021. pip 21.0 will remove support for this functionality.
