You should consider upgrading via the '/usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.

Despite upgrading why does it give the warning?

Answer 1

You don't have write permission to do the site-package upgrade re site-packages is not writeable . You can run it with sudo if you wish, although for a Debian based distribution it would be more appropriate to leave package managed files alone.

And you are not using the local version you installed re `'/home/ubuntu/.local/bin' which is not on PATH`.

To do this,

export PATH=$PATH:/home/ubuntu/.local/bin

Answer 2

Use sudo /usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
