Unable to locate package with apt-get remove
I'm trying to remove pip (because I have pip3). I did sudo apt-get remove --purge pip, and get
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package pip
But which pip gives
/usr/local/bin/pip
I can confirm that pip doesn't work, because pip --version gives
bash: /usr/local/bin/pip: /usr/bin/python: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
How to I clean up my system?
FYI I'm using Ubuntu on Windows (WSL). I really hope this isn't the problem, because everything else seems to be working fine.
