Can not get python to install Talos package - python

I've installed the latest python version 3.9.7 on my ubuntu 20.04 machine. I'm attempting to run some code that requires the Talos package, however I've attempted several times to install Talos using pip3. It does much of the work downloading and installing stuff, until it gets to something called "building wheel for scipy", and then after a lot of work, all I get is error messages. My first question is, is it possible that there is no version of Talos for 3.9.7, or that 3.9.7 is too advanced? If it should integrate Talos, how can I diagnose the problem so I can get it installed? Thx. J

This could be because the wrong version of Cython is being picked up. I have experienced this being the cause of scipy build errors in the past. I would try a pip3 install --upgrade cython first.

Pip Errors Out When Installing Anything

I've run into an odd issue where pip just won't work. I'm using the latest version of PyCharm, and I've tried both Python 3.8.10 and 3.9.6.
I've done clean installations of both, removed from PATH, reinstalled with new installer, reinstalled pip, etc.
The error code I run into appears no matter what library I am trying to download. I've tried PyAudio, PyGame, OpenCV-Python and others.
Pip was working fine a couple days ago, and no changes have been made to any files in that time.
Attempting to run pip install --upgrade pip does not have an effect.
I've been running off virtual enviroments with setuptools 40.8.0 and pip 21.1.3 installed.
The full error for installing PyAudio can be seen here: https://pastebin.com/iQmZwsRv
PyGame error: https://pastebin.com/WEF8uM2d
OpenCV-Python Error: https://pastebin.com/LuZq99Cu
Py- audio - it's not compatible with your Py charm I suppose due to the latest install updates, try to install it on the main environment. Also, try to downgrade your version of python as many dependencies are not compatible with your version of python as stated by error[it is not compatible with this Python]
Open Cv - Fails to build the wheel package as it is attributed also in error [CMake was unable to find a build program corresponding to "Ninja". CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is not set. You probably need to select a different build tool.]
May I know what build tool are you using?

Python error in installing package 'hpelm' via pip on windows

I am trying to install hpelm on my machine via pip install hpelm but getting this error - image of the error thrown in commandline while installing. I tried lots of things to solve it like:
1.Installing anaconda
2.Uninstalling anaconda and installing python 3.7 (64-bit) from python.org and then installing numpy+mkl, scipy, scikitlearn from the windows binary hosted by Christoph Gohlke (link).
3.Installing numpy, scipy, scikit-learn via pip install 'package_name'
None of the above methods worked. I'm using Windows-10 (64-bit), Python 3.7.1 (64-bit). I have wasted hours on it. Is there something basic that I might be missing? I'm kinda new to this. Please help me install this package.
This is a problem with Python3.7, as seen in this Github thread. It works fine if you try on Python 3.6. I installed it fine on Python3.6.7.

Installing Cython/Statsmodels

I can not for the life of me figure out how to install the package statsmodels for Python 3. It feels like I've tried everything, but nothing is working.
Goal: import statsmodels in python
I start with:
pip install statsmodels
Main error messages:
Failed bulding wheel for statsmodels.
Cython is required to compile statsmodels from a development branch.
Please install Cython or download a source release of statsmodels.
So I try:
pip install cython
Gives:
Requirement already satisfied: cython in c:users\XXX\appdata\roaming\python\python36\site-packages
I installed cython by installing anaconda. I have tried almost all answers I could find by basic googling. But things just don't seem to be working.
Instead of listing the input\output of what I have tried I now only show the first steps, but let me know if you want to see the output of any commands.
How do I continue from here? Any help is appreciated, I've been trying to fix this for several days now and I'm only getting frustrated.
Right now I'm trying:
easy_install cython
This seemed to work, but afterwards pip install statsmodels didn't work.
Command ... failed with error code 1.
I tried:
git clone https://github.com/statsmodels/statsmodels
cd statsmodels
pip install .
And failed with a bunch of errors.
I ran into this same problem lastnight trying to install statsmodels. Finally what worked was installing the Microsoft Visual C++ compiler for Python found here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=44266 then installing statsmodels by doing pip install statsmodels. I had already installed Cython by using pip. Though I do realize that was for Python 2.7. There doesn't seem to be this compiler available for Python 3.
The main statsmodels on PyPI is very old and uses a nonstandard setup. The release candidate for 0.10.0 is out now, and I would strongly recommend you use this one. You can install it using
pip install statsmodels=0.10.0rc2 --pre
It has wheels for all of the major platforms (Win/OSX/Linux), so you shouldn't see issues related to Cython.
To install statsmodels under anaconda, use
conda install statsmodels
The package is available in the repository of anacondata in version 0.8.0 which is the latest on pip as of now.
anaconda is not "just" a Python installation, it also contains the conda package manager that can install pre-built packages from the main repository of anaconda or from other "channels". It is not advisable to install packages that are available from the anaconda channel with pip, in general.
A comment on the issue of Cython here: to use Cython, your computer needs also a "development environment", that is the availability of a C compiler, of the Python development headers, among others. The C compiler must be compatible with the version of Python for which Cython is installed.

Setuptools error when trying to install a package

I’m completely new to Python and I want to install the package py-webrtcvad in Windows 7, but I'm stuck at the error ImportError: No module named 'pip.utils.setuptools_build'. There is an answer to this problem in stackoverflow which seems to solve the problem for others, but it doesn't work for me.
Here’s a summary of what I’ve done and tried so far:
Installed Python 3.5 and set up the Windows path environment so
that it works from any directory.
Installed pip for Python.
Tried to install the package with python -m pip install webrtcvad,
but it failed, returning the error Unable to find vcvarsall.bat.
I found a blog that deals with the vcvarsall.bat
problem: blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/pythonengineering/2016/04/11/unable-to-find-vcvarsall-bat. Following the directions of that blog:
First I just installed Visual C++ Build Tools 2015 and tried installing the package straight away (without updating setuptools), but I received a lot of error messages (which I didn’t write down).
I tried reinstalling setuptools, which I did following the directions in https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools: I removed the version of setuptools that came with my Python installation (v20), and installed the latest version (v30). This time I got a different error message when trying to install py-webrtcvad: ImportError: No module named 'pip.utils.setuptools_build'.
Asked for assistance in the Python official chat. They made three
suggestions:
Updating pip with python -m pip install --upgrade pip. Didn’t
work. Again, the error ImportError: No module named 'pip.utils.setuptools_build'.
Reinstalling Visual C++ Build Tools 2015. No difference, same error
again.
Reinstalling Python itself. The Python installer offers three
choices: Repair, modify and uninstall.
Repair: Didn’t work. Same error.
Modify: Doesn’t look like it offers useful modifications for this.
Uninstall: Uninstalled and reinstalled. Still the same error.
I’m out of ideas. Can you help me?
Note: I imagine this should be doable in Windows 7 with Python 3.5. However, if it isn't I'm open to trying anything different. For example, installing a different version of Python would be no problem at all. I could also try installing Linux if that will solve the problem.
There was a bug in version 2.0.8 of webrtcvad that caused it to use the wrong flags when compiling for Windows: it was using -DWEBRTC_POSIX instead of -DWIN32. This might have been the source of the "lot of error messages" you got during one of your early attempts.
The fixed version has been pushed to pypi as version 2.0.9. I've confirmed that pip install webrtcvad works correctly on Windows 10. I'm using a pretty fresh install of Python, so I would try it first without reinstalling setuptools.

Installing OpenMDAO

I am trying to install OpenMDAO, which is an open source framework that uses python. So before I get to it, it needs 3 packages:
Fortran Compiler
NumPY
ScyPy
Which I did install using homebrew:
brew install gfortran
sudo easy_install-2.6 pip
sudo pip-2.6 install numpy
sudo pip-2.6 install scipy
Now, to install OpenMDAO, I'm supposed to be in the OpenMDAO folder and at that level I should run this script:
python go-openmdao-dev.py
But I keep getting this error:
ERROR: the following prerequisites could not be imported: ['scipy'].
So I was talking to the people at OpenMDAO, and it seems that I need to use is python2.6 - although I'm not certain, so my guess is that all the packages I installed are for python 2.7 which I downloaded since it was recommended in the python website.
The one that comes with Mac was not. So when I type in terminal the following:
python2.6
It actually runs that version. So at this point I don't know if I have to go run the script in python 2.6, but if so, I have no idea how to do it. I tried doing this and it did not work:
If anyone is familiar with the environment or just with python itself and has any suggestions, I'll really appreciate it.
This question was answered on the OpenMDAO support forum:
http://openmdao.org/forum/questions/744/error-the-following-prerequisites-could-not-be-imported-scipy
The solution was to install scipy and numpy for python2.7. The original poster first installed them for python2.6, but then ran the go-openmdao.py script with python2.7. Once all the pre-reqs were installed for 2.7, it worked.
I had the same problem after downloading scipy from a .dmg. I uninstalled, and then reinstalled from source: http://sourceforge.net/projects/scipy/files/scipy/0.12.0/ and then the openmdao installer recognized scipy.
This may be useful (from INSTALL.txt in scipy-0.12.0.tar.gz):
To test SciPy after installation (highly recommended), execute in
Python
>>> import scipy
>>> scipy.test()
To run the full test suite use
>>> scipy.test('full')
Please note that you must have version 0.10 or later of the 'nose'
test framework installed in order to run the tests. More information
about nose is available on the website__.
