Install Utils Package in Python Facing With Error Package Not Found

Install utils package in python facing with error Package not found

Try run:

conda install --channel bioconda/label/bioconda-utils-test package

or

conda install -c conda-forge python-utils

pip cannot uninstall <package>: It is a distutils installed project

This error means that this package's metadata doesn't include a list of files that belong to it. Most probably, you have installed this package via your OS' package manager, so you need to use that rather than pip to update or remove it, too.

See e.g. Upgrading to pip 10: It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial uninstall. · Issue #5247 · pypa/pip for one such example where the package was installed with apt.

Alternatively, depending on your needs, it may be more productive to not use your system Python and/or its global environment but create a private Python installation and/or environment. There are many options here including virtualenv, venv, pyenv, pipenv and installing Python from source into
/usr/local or $HOME/$HOME/.local (or /opt/<whatever>).

Finally, I must comment on the often-suggested (e.g. at pip 10 and apt: how to avoid "Cannot uninstall X" errors for distutils packages) --ignore-installed pip switch.

It may work (potentially for a long enough time for your business needs), but may just as well break things on the system in unpredictable ways. One thing is sure: it makes the system's configuration unsupported and thus unmaintainable -- because you have essentially overwritten files from your distribution with some other arbitrary stuff. E.g.:

• If the new files are binary incompatible with the old ones, other software from the distribution built to link against the originals will segfault or otherwise malfunction.
• If the new version has a different set of files, you'll end up with a mix of old and new files which may break dependent software as well as the package itself.
• If you change the package with your OS' package manager later, it will overwrite pip-installed files, with similarly unpredictable results.
• If there are things like configuration files, differences in them between the versions can also lead to all sorts of breakage.

Pip can't find module pip._internal.utils

Reinstalling didn't solve my problem. That is, not before I really made sure that nothing was left behind.

My Python install was in C:\Python38\. After uninstalling python, this directory remained and contained some left over modules, like pip. I manually deleted the whole C:\Python38 folder.

Then, I checked my AppData folder in my home dir. Everything in this folder and all subfolders that was related to Python or Python modules, I deleted as well. Keep in mind AppData is a hidden folder, so it you might have to enable showing of hidden files and folders in the explorer first.

Finally, I removed all Python folders from my PATH environment variables (system as well as user).

After that, I did a new install of Python 3.8 and everything works as expected.

What I think the problem was? Some left overs from a previously (broken) installation messed with my environment, causing pip not resolving required modules.

No matching distribution found for utilities

There is no module named utilities in Python,I believe you have encountered importing a file called utilities.py by the line import utilities. Showing the full source code might help. Additionally, check the gitgub repo of your source code for a file called utilities.py and copy it to your execution folder. If you are talking about python-utils, check this link.

Python Utilities contains many standard utility modules to solve common problems. They are :

File System -- os, os.path, shutil

Running External Processes -- commands

Exceptions

HTTP -- urllib and urlparse

Check This link

If this doesn't solve your issue, try installing the utilities-package using :

pip install utilities-package

PIP install error: package directory 'X' does not exist

py_modules takes a list of module names, not files. Your call looks for RTBatch/py.py and RTBatch_cli/py.py.

Pip - Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process using ' '

I fixed my issue by...

1. downloading Python 3 at the official website and installing it via express installation
2. Copy & Paste the standalone python into the ampps/python folder and overwriting the python version provided by AMPPS
3. running python -m pip install --upgrade pip in cmd

Now pip and python 3 are installed in their latest version.

It seems that AMPPS doesnt't provide a full-fledged python build. So you need to update python yourself.

Thanks to y'all.

pip installed but throwing error while installing any package

The urllib module used by pip will automatically load proxy configuration from your OS.

In this case, this fails because you appear to have some malformed proxy configuration, in the proxy-bypass field. Verify that your proxy configuration is correct. On Mac, do so under System Preferences > Network.
