On Ubuntu, step 1.1 is sudo apt-get install python3 python3-dev.
Then step 1.2 is python3 -m pip install --user mercurial.

On a fresh Ubuntu 21.04 install, this prints:

/usr/bin/python3: No module named pip

It looks like the python3-pip package is also needed.

So step 1.1 should probably be changed to sudo apt-get install python3 python3-dev python3-pip.
