"ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement kivy_deps.sdl2_dev~=0.4.5 (from versions: 0.5.1)" shows up trying to install kivy

When I try to install Kivy on Python it all runs fine at first, before the message in the title shows up.

I tried installing "cython" because it helped in some similar problems, however it did not change at all.
My version is 3.11.

you need to install it with command
pip install git+https://github.com/kivy/kivy
i have same with that problem, but i install it from github and its work

I don't specifically know which packages cause this error, a lot of them install without any problems.
I have tried updating pip, changing environment variables and other possible solutions I've found on the internet, but nothing seems to work.
Edit: The package I am trying to install supports my Python version.

The real error in your case is:
ImportError: cannot import name 'msvccompiler' from 'distutils'
It occured because setuptools has broken distutils in version 65.0.0 (and has already fixed it in version 65.0.2). According to your log, the error occured in your global setuptools installation (see the path in error message), so you need to update it with the following command:
pip install -U setuptools
Those packages, however, may still not get installed or not work properly as the module causing this error doesn't support compiler versions needed for currently supported versions of Python.

Same thing happened with me, it was basically pip's version problem.
Try upgrading pip to latest version --22.3.1 and downgrade the python version from latest version --3.10.00 to 3.9.13...
pip --version check for pip's version
pip install notebook --upgrade -command to update pip to latest version
This worked for me

Problems installing certain libraries in python using pip in Spyder

I’ve been running into the same error message with multiple libraries, not all libraries but randomly.
All I could find here and on other equation boards was that I need to upgrade my pip, it’s upgraded to the max (22.1.2) but I still get the same error, no with the added “WARNING: There was an error checking the latest version of pip.”
So this is what I get when I try to install pyinstaller

Single pip command to install a tarball or zip as a wheel

I have been unable to find a single pip command to install from a repository (svn, git) or tarball/zip as a wheel. I'm using Python 2.7. For example, Genshi is only available from PyPI as tarball or zip. The package is installed as an egg:

Is there a way to build and install a wheel from a tarball/zip archive in a single pip command? There doesn't appear to be a --wheel option for pip install. There's an --only-binary option, but it will fail if a prebuilt wheel can't be found.
