Installation on Linux #44

Closed gadhamak closed 6 years ago

gadhamak commented 6 years ago

Hello. I was able to install this successfully on a MacBook and work as expected. However, I was not successful installing it on a Linux virtual machine.

Can you please provide guidance or procedure doing this? I could not run a PIP command.

[root@= hamakga]# pip Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/pip", line 5, in from pkg_resources import load_entry_point File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/init.py", line 3020, in working_set = WorkingSet._build_master() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/init.py", line 616, in _build_master return cls._build_from_requirements(requires) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/init.py", line 629, in _build_from_requirements dists = ws.resolve(reqs, Environment()) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/init.py", line 807, in resolve raise DistributionNotFound(req) pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: pip==6.1.1

I have python 2.7.12 and python 3.6.2 on the machine.

Please help.

Hi,

Can you try the following?

sudo /usr/local/bin/pip install --upgrade pip // (to upgrade pip)
sudo /usr/local/bin/pip install virtualenv --upgrade // (to upgrade virtualenv)

It appears that it may be a conflict with the version of pip you have in the machine.

If that does not work, please send me the details of your Linux VM such as

pip -V
pip3 -V

The current version of the client installation via pip only works with pip2 or earlier.

The installation on Linux has been successfully tested in Ubuntu, Kali, Debian, and CentOS. Closing this issue, as we didn't get any additional information from the submitter.
