The Python interpreter is able to execute packages that have a __main__.py file. However, I do not think that GPython has this capability. This is causing me problems when trying to install a package using pip as it calls the Python executable passing as the first argument the pip directory name.

For example:

python -m pip install line_profiler

Gives me the following error:
