Conversely something like jq is trivial to install and use almost anywhere because it is just a binary linked against libc. As a result I use it all the time.

1. pip3 install httpie.
2. python3 -m pip install httpie.
3. sudo pip install httpie.
Finally, it was working. Last week I upgraded to ubuntu 18.04 and surprise, httpie is not working. I didn't bother installing again from pip. Luckily this time, apt repository had a recent version.
Scrolling back through my terminal history, I see that I went through the same struggle with s3cmd.
So yeah, installing anything that requires python is a bit painful. Fortunately, someone in the comments mentioned https://github.com/rs/curlie which is an HTTPie alternative in golang.
