`pipx` name on PyPI is taken by another project
See original GitHub issueAdd a thumbs up to this issue to signal to the owner that you would like this project to be transferred as the owner of the name on PyPI.
- npx is the node package runner, so for symmetry it makes sense that pipx would be the Python package runner
- if ownership was transferred, I would add a section in the README thanking him and linking to his github projects
thank you for all the upvotes!
Update: The owner of the pipx name is going to keep the name. This issue is now to determine the best way forward in terms of installing pipx
and choosing a name (if any) on PyPI.
