The Goal
Install ssdeep PyPi package on a M1 Macbook Pro.
The Problem
When I run pip install ssdeep I get 2 errors
The first error is caused because fuzzy.h cannot be found.

The second error has to do with setuptools.installer being deprecated. I'm not sure this is all that important though. I think resolving the first error would resolve this one as well.
/Users/user/proj/.venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/setuptools/installer.py:27: SetuptoolsDeprecationWarning: setuptools.installer is deprecated. Requirements should be satisfied by a PEP 517 installer.
Attempted Solutions
Solution 1: Install SSDeep with Homebrew brew install ssdeep
Result: pip install ssdeep has the same error about fuzzy.h missing
Solution 2: Use the prepackaged version of SSDeep BUILD_LIB=1 pip install ssdeep
Result: The error about fuzzy.h goes away but the second error regarding setuptools.installer being deprecated remains.

Compiling SSDeep and pydeep on MacOS X 10.9+ This was pretty out of date though.
SSDeep Documentation
ssdeep package at PyPI is a Python wrapper for ssdeep library written in C. So first you have to compile and install ssdeep, then other python-ssdeep requirements, then compile and install python-ssdeep.
I found a solution. Essentially what's going on is that Homebrew installs ssdeep in a location that the ssdeep PyPi package is not expecting. You can point the PyPi package to the correct locations with the following steps.
1: Install ssdeep with homebrew brew install ssdeep
2: List homebrew directories for ssdeep brew ls ssdeep
This produces output like
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/ssdeep/2.14.1/bin/ssdeep
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/ssdeep/2.14.1/include/ (2 files)
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/ssdeep/2.14.1/lib/libfuzzy.2.dylib
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/ssdeep/2.14.1/lib/ (2 other files)
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/ssdeep/2.14.1/share/man/man1/ssdeep.1
3: Set the LDFLAGS environment variable to the path of the ssdeep lib directory from the output in step 2.
LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/ssdeep/2.14.1/lib"
4: Set the C_INCLUDE_PATH environment variable to the path of the ssdeep include directory from the output in step 2.
export C_INCLUDE_PATH=/opt/homebrew/Cellar/ssdeep/2.14.1/include
5: Install ssdeep from PyPi pip install ssdeep
#HopAlongPolly answer almost worked for me but i got an error which the root cause seems to be:
ld: warning: ignoring file /opt/homebrew/Cellar/ssdeep/2.14.1/lib/libfuzzy.dylib, building for macOS-x86_64 but attempting to link with file built for macOS-arm64
to solve this i ran BUILD_LIB=1 pip install ssdeep
If your env is pretty new you will get the following errors:
/bin/sh: libtoolize: command not found
/bin/sh: automake: command not found
to solve this you need to run brew install libtool automake and then create the following a symlink somewhere in your path from libtoolize to the glibtoolize binary that was installed via brew (This is needed as build process looks for libtoolize but homebrew installs glibtoolize). Pretty sure there is a cleaner way to point to the correct binary but the symlink did the job ;)
In summary do the steps that #HopAlongPolly recommended then run
brew install libtool automake
ln -s /opt/homebrew/bin/glibtoolize /opt/homebrew/bin/libtoolize
BUILD_LIB=1 pip install ssdeep
for a specific reason I need to install nltk 2.09b in python 2.7 version. But whenever I execute the following command,
pip2 install nltk==2.0b9
I get the following error:
Collecting nltk==2.0b9

But if I run without any version specification I don't get an error. like the following:
pip2 install nltk;
How can I solve this issue?
First thing: using anaconda, you probably have a recent enough pip and setuptools and should use conda itself to update those. With anaconda, conda install is the primary resource for installing anaconda-provided packages. Then, "2.0b9" is a beta release (as indicated by the "b9") and might suffer from a configuration problem for the install. The setup.py file is not located at the root of the downloaded archive file, I suppose that creates the problem.
Use this
pip3.6 install nltk==version
After updating a package (IPython in my case) using pip install -U ipython running any Python script that uses entry points fails with this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/adrian/dev/indico/env/bin/indico", line 5, in <module>

requirement_string[e.loc:e.loc + 8], requirement_string))
pkg_resources._vendor.packaging.requirements.InvalidRequirement: Invalid requirement, parse error at "'< 2.0'"
Nothing else changed, I did not update any other libraries.
This is caused by an issue in setuptools==20.2.1 which is pulled in by IPython (setuptools>..), so a pip install -U updated it.
Until a fixed version is released or the broken version is pulled from PyPI there is a simple workaround (but note that it will break again if something updates setuptools):
pip install -U pip
pip uninstall setuptools
pip install 'setuptools<20.2'
The pip update is needed since older versions of pip will not work without setuptools being installed
See these IRC logs and BitBucket issue for details:

Try downgrading your pip to 8.1.1:
pip install pip==8.1.1
That solved it for me.
In my case I had package = "2.8.0" in my Pipfile. Changing it to package = "==2.8.0" fixed this error for me.
I'm installing several Python packages in Ubuntu 12.04 using the following requirements.txt file:
numpy>=1.8.2,<2.0.0
matplotlib>=1.3.1,<2.0.0
scipy>=0.14.0,<1.0.0
astroML>=0.2,<1.0
scikit-learn>=0.14.1,<1.0.0
rpy2>=2.4.3,<3.0.0
and these two commands:
$ pip install --download=/tmp -r requirements.txt
$ pip install --user --no-index --find-links=/tmp -r requirements.txt
(the first one downloads the packages and the second one installs them).
The process is frequently stopped with the error:
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement <package> (from matplotlib<2.0.0,>=1.3.1->-r requirements.txt (line 2)) (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for <package> (from matplotlib<2.0.0,>=1.3.1->-r requirements.txt (line 2))
which I fix manually with:
pip install --user <package>
and then run the second pip install command again.
But that only works for that particular package. When I run the second pip install command again, the process is stopped now complaining about another required package and I need to repeat the process again, ie: install the new required package manually (with the command above) and then run the second pip install command.
So far I've had to manually install six, pytz, nose, and now it's complaining about needing mock.
Is there a way to tell pip to automatically install all needed dependencies so I don't have to do it manually one by one?
Add: This only happens in Ubuntu 12.04 BTW. In Ubuntu 14.04 the pip install commands applied on the requirements.txt file work without issues.
Although it doesn't really answers this specific question. Others got the same error message with this mistake.
For those who like me initial forgot the -r: Use pip install -r requirements.txt the -r is essential for the command.
The original answer:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/42876654/10093070
I had installed python3 but my python in /usr/bin/python was still the old 2.7 version
This worked (<pkg> was pyserial in my case):
python3 -m pip install <pkg>
This approach (having all dependencies in a directory and not downloading from an index) only works when the directory contains all packages. The directory should therefore contain all dependencies but also all packages that those dependencies depend on (e.g., six, pytz etc).
You should therefore manually include these in requirements.txt (so that the first step downloads them explicitly) or you should install all packages using PyPI and then pip freeze > requirements.txt to store the list of all packages needed.
Just a reminder to whom google this error and come here.
Let's say I get this error:
$ python3 example.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "example.py", line 7, in <module>
import aalib
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'aalib'
Since it mentions aalib, I was thought to try aalib:
$ python3.8 -m pip install aalib
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement aalib (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for aalib
But it actually wrong package name, ensure pip search(service disabled at the time of writing), or google, or search on pypi site to get the accurate package name:
Then install successfully:
$ python3.8 -m pip install python-aalib
Collecting python-aalib
Downloading python-aalib-0.3.2.tar.gz (14 kB)
...
As pip --help stated:
$ python3.8 -m pip --help
...
-v, --verbose Give more output. Option is additive, and can be used up to 3 times.
To have a systematic way to figure out the root causes instead of rely on luck, you can append -vvv option of pip command to see details, e.g.:
$ python3.8 -u -m pip install aalib -vvv

From above log, there is pretty obvious the URL https://pypi.org/simple/aalib/ 404 not found. Then you can guess the possible reasons which cause that 404, i.e. wrong package name. Another thing is I can modify relevant python files of pip modules to further debug with above log. To edit .whl file, you can use wheel command to unpack and pack.
After 2 hours of searching, I found a way to fix it with just one line of command. You need to know the version of the package (Just search up PACKAGE version).
Command:
python3 -m pip install --pre --upgrade PACKAGE==VERSION.VERSION.VERSION
Below command worked for me -
python -m pip install flask
Not always, but in some cases the package already exists. For example - getpass. It is not listed by "pip list" but it can be imported and used:
If I try to pip install getpass I get the following error:
"Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement getpass"
Try installing flask through the powershell using the following command.
pip install --isolated Flask
This will allow installation to avoide environment variables and user configuration.
If you facing this issue at the workplace. This might be the solution for you.
pip install -U <package_name> --user --proxy=<your proxy>
Pip install from pypi.org.
pip install -U -i https://pypi.org/simple package
One possible error, pip package requires python intepreter which you are not using.
I ran into the same problem, it occurred only when I ran commands from my Docker image (or Dockerfile). Finally many hours later I managed to solve it by updating my python intepreter. Pointed out that my pip-package required python>=3,7 but my Docker image was using python 3.6.
Tip: To check out if you have similar problem, just check pip package requirements and your python version. Private pip package intepreter requirements are wrote down inside setup.py or setup.cfg. Public pip packages are usuially hosted in pypi.org where you can just check intepreter requirements with your browser. To check your python intepreter version just write for example python --version or python3 --version in your console
General problem description
As other answers point out there can also be other requirements that you are not satisfying and that is why pip can not found suitable package version for you. All the requirements are wrote down in pip package documentation and can be easily readed from https://pypi.org/project/graphene-django/your-package
I got this error while installing awscli on Windows 10 in anaconda (python 3.7).
While troubleshooting, I went to the answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/49991357/6862405 and then to https://stackoverflow.com/a/54582701/6862405. Finally found that I need to install the libraries PyOpenSSL, cryptography, enum34, idna and ipaddress. After installing these (using simply pip install command), I was able to install awscli.
When I lost my internet connection, I had this error.
Since it's a pretty annoying problem that may stuck beginners for a long period of time, here I write a complete guild.
if you are running pip install PACKAGE or python -m pip install PACKAGE, and a no matching version found error reported, here's how to solve the problem.
search your package on browser, for example my package is pycypto, here I search pycypto pypi
find your package, open the link on pypi, click download file
open a python shell, import any of your installed package, for example, I have installed Pillow before.
>>> import PIL
>>> PIL.__path__
['/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/canvas/src/zzd/env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/PIL']
PACKAGE.__path__ function will gives you the side packages path where all packages should go into.
PLUS:
if you have no idea what packages you installed before, run pip list to get a list of installed packages.
after we obtain the path, open a shell, cd to the path
cd /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/canvas/src/zzd/env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/
open
unzip the downloaded file, drag it into site-packages.
cd into the downloaded directory, and run setup.py to install
cd pycrypto-2.6.1
python setup.py install
Then you should be able to import and use the package in python.
Same error in slightly different circumstances, on MacOs. Apparently setuptools versions past 45 can expose some issues and this command got me past it:
pip3 install setuptools==45
If the package is local, don't miss the relative path.
E.g.
pip install ./<pkg>
finally worked in my case, while
pip install <pkg>
yielded:
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement <pkg> (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for <pkg>
I had a problem installing pandas-1.4.3, and the problem was my python patch version. pandas-1.4.3 required python version 3.8.13 and did not work with 3.8.9:
python install -r requirements.txt # or pip install pandas==1.4.3
# -> Could not find a version that satisfies...
conda activate my_project # creates a virtual env for a new python version
conda install python=3.8.13 # installing the new python version
python --version # displays 3.8.13
pip install -r python/requirements.txt
# -> pandas installed as expected
Search in google if you find some other version of that package available
use that for example
I was getting errors using the glob so I used glob2 instead
Followed instructions on the github page. Of course, had to make minor changes since I was working with a windows 7 system. I got to the point post creating the virtual environment for portia to run. And I was trying to install the required packages using pip.
pip install -r requirements.txt
It failed with a log.
Now in the shell I try to run twistd, it gives error saying command not found. I even tried as follows:
deostroll#DEOTOP /c/Portia/portia/slyd (master)
$ python ../../portia_env/Scripts/twistd.py -n slyd

Is there an alternate procedure to follow in order to make this work on windows?
It looks like zope.interface didn't install when you ran:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Could you try running the following and see if it works?
pip install zope.interface
