I tried to upgrade the setuptools and install ez_setup
pip install --upgrade setuptools
pip install ez_setup
This doesn't changed anything, also tried to install the missing package with
pip install libffi
pip install cffi
But it all failed. I tried everything I found on the internet, but nothing works. Wasted hours on this... What the heck am I missing?
EDIT:
Also tried:
pip install libffi-dev
But this results in:
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement libffi-dev (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for libffi-dev
Tried:
sudo apt-get libffi-dev
but it results in:
Package libffi-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'libffi-dev' has no installation candidate

It happened to me as well. I finally found an answer that worked. I simply added the cffi module before adding pysftp.
pip install cffi
and then
pip install pysftp.

Can't install cryptography on raspberry pi because of libffi [duplicate]

I've been trying to install the package "flask-ask" on my Raspberry Pi Zero. However, there's a problem when trying to install the dependency "cryptography":

I've tried pip3 install -U setuptools to upgrade it, but that doesn't work:

So what should I do? I've done a lot of googling of various different things, and I've seen other people have problems with cryptography on the Pi, but not this specific problem.
EDIT: Ok, so I've done pip install --user -U setuptools now, and that works fine. Now I'm getting a totally different error:

I've had luck in a similar situation recently by first updating pip.

I installed cqlsh client on remote using following command,
sudo apt-get install build-essential python-dev python-pip libev4 libev-dev
sudo apt-get install cython3
sudo pip install cassandra-driver
sudo pip install cassandra-driver --install-option="--no-cython"
sudo pip install cqlsh; (Or cqlsh==5.0.3)
export CQLSH_NO_BUNDLED=TRUE
cqlsh 192.168.0.330 --cqlversion="3.4.2"

cassandra-driver apparently needs cython. So pip install cython would fix this.

None of the above worked for me as I was using virtualenv. i.e.
yum install -y python-virtualenv
virtualenv-2.7 /opt/test
What worked for me was as follows:
/opt/test/bin/pip install --upgrade pip
/opt/test/bin/pip install typing cython
/opt/test/bin/pip install cassandra-driver

python setup.py egg_info gcc error installing cassandra python

For some reason, the specific version that I need to install manually cannot be accessed directly:
rpm -i ftp://195.220.108.108/linux/centos/7.1.1503/updates/x86_64/Packages/python-2.7.5-18.el7_1.1.x86_64.rpm
So tried a brand new installation of python, then tried updating and installing setup tools
yum -y update
yum -y install python-pip
pip install -U pip
pip install -U setuptools
pip install cassandra-driver
yum install patch
then tried
wget https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py
python ez_setup.py
pip install cassandra-driver

Then python-devel solved the problem.
install yum install python-devel

I am working inside docker so prefixed the 'RUN'. On real systems, you will need to use sudo in place of RUN. Sometimes, the pip is tool old. In my case it was 7.x so I also upgraded it. cython depends on python-devel
RUN pip install --upgrade pip
RUN yum -y install python-devel
RUN pip install cython

Try installing numpy and scipy from Christoph Gohlke's Python Extension Packages for Windows repository. These are already compiled and statically linked to Intel's MKL library for increased performance, so all you need to do is download the appropriate .exe file for your version and "bit-ness" of Python, then run the downloaded file and it'll install.

This is related.
I am having problems installing Scipy wheel file (no exe available) for Python 2.7.9, 64 bit on Window 7.
I have downloaded the whl file: scipy-0.15.1-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl from Christoph Gohlke's Python Extension Packages for Windows repository, into my Downloads folder.
I have then tried the following at cmd prompt:
pip2 install c:\users\ name \Downloads\scipy-0.15.1-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl
And I get weird error
Exception Traceback etc etc.
If I use just pip, I get unknown or unsupported command 'install'. And yes, I have set my environment variable PATH to include both
C:\Python27;C:\Python27\Scripts
And numpy MKL 1.9.1. 64 bit is already installed.
And I have downloaded and successfully installed wheel package.

With advice, the answer to my problem is:
At the CMD prompt, specify the path to pip.exe and include double quotes for the path to where the whl file is downloaded.
For example,
C:\Python27\Scripts\pip.exe install "C:\Users\ name \Downloads\scipy-0.15.1-cp27-none-win_amd64.whl"
