Description

Follow instructions at PIP command completion to run pip completion --zsh >> ~/.zprofile to set-up autocompletion.

When launching new shell, I get the error: /Users/*******/.zprofile:20: command not found: compdef

Expected behavior

No errors should be there when launching new shell. Autocompletion should work.

pip version

24.0

Python version

3.10.6

OS

Mac OS Sonoma 14.4.1

How to Reproduce

On Mac system with homebrew installed python, run the autocompletion set-up command as written in instruction.

Output

Shell command pip completion --zsh >> ~/.zprofile runs without error. However, autocompletion doesn't work. When launching new shell .zshrc gets executed and we get an error instead: /Users/*******/.zprofile:20: command not found: compdef

A PR fixing our ZSH autocompletion would be welcomed. This is something that out of the core team's wheel house, so we'd likely depend on an outside contribution here.
