This utility should have been installed as part of the Python 3.4 installation. Check if Python 3.4 is installed by running `python3 --version`. If it is not installed, [download it here](https://www.python.org/getit/).

If you are able to successfully run `python3 --version` but not `pip3`, install Home Assistant by running the following command instead:

```bash
$ python3 -m pip install homeassistant
```

On a Debian system, you can also install python3 by `sudo apt-get install python3`d and pip3 by `sudo apt-get install python3-pip`.
