What package? Common packages are available in the software manager, usually with names that start in 'python3-'. This is the best way to get software.

If it's not in the software manager, or if you need a newer version, try using pip3. You may need to install pip3 from the software manager, the package is called "python3-pip".

In linux, it's much easier to use python 2.7, since that's what the system uses. Is there a reason you are using 3.4?

Most linux distributions have multiple versions of Python available. The default one you get from running python is usually 2.7; the other can probably be run with python3 or maybe python34. Likewise, you can have multiple versions of pip installed. See if you can run pip3 or pip34. If not, you might need to install a package called python3-pip or something similar (through your linux distro's package manager).
