DUNE_PYTHON_ALLOW_GET_PIP
=========================

.. cmake_variable:: DUNE_PYTHON_ALLOW_GET_PIP

   Set this variable to allow the Dune build system to download :code:`get-pip.py`
   from https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py at configure time and execute it
   to install pip into the freshly set up virtual environment. This step became
   necessary because of a debian bug:
   https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+source/python3.4/+bug/1290847

   If you do not want the Dune build system to download :code:`get-pip.py`, you can
   manually activate the virtual environment (sourcing the activate script
   symlinked into the build directories), install pip through your favorite
   method and reconfigure.
