Hello,

When trying to install tinycov using pip, I encountered the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/dss/dssfs02/lwp-dss-0001/pn69xe/pn69xe-dss-0000/di52zuy/ignite_tools_py3/bin/pip", line 7, in <module> from pip._internal.main import main ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pip._internal.main'

I managed to install it however by running python setup.py install --user.

Hi,

It seems to be a pip-related bug linked to version mismatch: https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5373

Apparently this bug can appear when you update the distribution's pip using sudo pip install -U pip. if that's what happened, reinstalling the distribution's pip seems to work: https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5253

Thanks for your help. In my case I cannot do that because I am using a cluster, but the most important is that it's working somehow.
