Thanks Mark, that was really quite a bit of information packed into a few sentences.  It clarifies a couple of things quite nicely.

Joe,
Yum is a general package installer for AIX and PASE and other platforms like Linux ... it works with RedHat Package Manager .rpm packages ... (IBM bought RedHat, so it "makes sense" they would go with that tooling.) Yum can install "anything" that runs in Unix/Linux systems (open systems), as long as you have yum itself already installed. ;-)

Pip is an installer specifically for stuff that is written in Python.
Hope that helps somewhat...?
All the best,
Mark S. Waterbury
