ERROR: Failed building wheel for cynetworkx

[geopast]

Following the install instructions exactly with the following:

Ubuntu 18.04.5 Anaconda 2020.7 Python 3.7.7

When running pip install -r requirements.txt, receive the error: ERROR: Failed building wheel for cynetworkx

Attempted to resolve with:

pip install Cython==3.0a5 pip install git+https://github.com/pattern-inc/cynetworkx.git pip install -r requirements.txt

But error persists. Any suggestions on how to resolve?

Were there any other errors before that point? In my case, it was issues with WSL and I was also getting error: unable to execute 'gcc': No such file or directory. I found a similar issue and followed the instructions here and ran

sudo apt update
sudo apt install g++
pip install -r requirements.txt

I have the same problem, did you solve it?

@beloved70020 I never found a solution... and probably I would have never found it along this route, because I just realized I inadvertently made changes to the .condarc file (which dictates which channel packages should be installed from) and because this altered file persisted multiple anaconda reinstalls it totally sent me off track...

So yeah, can't help you... all I can say, in case you are a new python user like me, is... next time you're lost don't forget to take a close look to that damn little file...

Solution suggested by @sjcobb worked in WSL.
