Python Error when installing ruamel.yaml package with pip

I am receiving an error when I want to install the ruamel.yaml package
Here is the command:
python --version;pip --version;pip install ruamel.yaml
And the output:

To give a bit of a background. I installed python3 with brew and I uninstalled it thereafter.
Now I cannot install ruamel.yaml
Has anybody had the same issue?
How did you solve it?

You should do a pip list and check your version of setuptools should be (28.8.0). If you have an older version, upgrade with pip install -U setuptools.
You should consider upgrading from 2.7.10 to a newer version of Python 2 (currently 2.7.14), which should solve your SSL problems. Make sure you don't overwrite the system python if you are running on Linux.

I was able to resolve this by downgrading the python version from 3.10.+ to 3.9.+

How can I install GDAL in Ubuntu 16,04 with python 2.7.12 using pip?

I am trying to import some specific libraries using python. it should be easy like importing numpy for example like so:
import osgeo.gdal, gdal
from osgeo.gdalconst import *
But it seemed to me like the packages gdal and osgeo are missing so I went to the project interpreter to add these packages, Sadly i did not find the package osgeo and the package gdal could not be installed ... I looked it up in the net but it seems that there is no exact way to solve the matter.
I am using Ubuntu 16,04 with python 2.7.12 and PS GDAL is Geospatial Data Abstraction Library
This the error message that I am getting:

You are using pip version 7.1.0, however version 9.0.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

Finally I found a solution to my problem.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gdal-bin
sudo apt-get -y install python-gdal
Thank you all for the contribution.

I'm trying to start a Pinax Project for Django.
I setup my Python Virtual Environment.
Upgraded setup tools.
Upgraded pip.
Installed Pinax.
Then when I tried 'pinax start blog my_site', it gave the following error:

What would you suggest?
Thank you for the read!

It appears like you are using python 2; if that is correct Django version 2 only supports python 3. Please refer to https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/releases/2.0/#python-compatibility
You could try installing a lower version of Django:
pip install "Django<2"

you may try:
pip3 install django

Fipy nominally installed but fipy.test() fails with error messages

I'm attempting to get FiPy set up using Miniconda 2 on a Windows 7 system, and got to the point of running the test suite with the recommended python -c "import fipy; fipy.test()".
Unfortunately rather than getting test results, the suite gave me an error with stack trace:

Can anyone help me get this to work? I don't know where to start with this outcome.

Just wanted to add for those who (like me) are new to git and conda - to install the FiPy from develop branch you should (following this answer):
Activate your conda environment: source activate myenv (or activate
myenv for windows)
Install git and pip: conda install git pip
Install FiPy: pip install git+git://github.com/usnistgov/fipy#develop

Installing Fabric On Windows (Error No Module Called Readline)

I'm trying to use the Fabric 0.1.1 deploy tool (http://docs.fabfile.org/) on Windows and we're running into an issue with the readline module. I've been through various threads but can't seem to solve the issue. It's important because we can't deploy applications from Windows based machines.

Has anybody solved this issue or can anybody suggest a workaround?

The readline module you are trying to install with easy_install is for OS X, not windows. There are Windows-compatible replacements for readline out there but perhaps you should first try updating fabric itself to a more current version (0.9 is out there now).
Grepping the source of the 0.9 version does not find any dependencies on readline.

Following these steps exactly worked for me:
1) Installed using the MSI installer for x86 from here.
2) Installed in the default C:\Python27 directory.
3) Create a new directory: C:\Python27\Scripts
4) Added C:\Python27 and C:\Python27\Scripts to the system path:
5) Download the distribute_setup.py from here into C:\Python27\Scripts
6) Open a command line, navigate to C:\Python27\Scripts, run: 'python distribute_setup.py'
7) now run 'easy_install pip'
8) now run 'pip install fabric'
9) You should get an error saying PyCrypto couldn't install. You can download the pre-build Windows binary from here. Run this to install PyCrypto.
10) run 'pip install fabric' again and it should say everything is installed.
11) in a different directory (let's say c:\dev\hello) create a fabfile.py and add the following code:
def hello(name="world"):
print("Hello %s!" % name)
12) cd to this directory and run 'fab hello:working'. You should see output say
Hello working!
Done.

Give this readline a try. It is a module for Windows that allows additional features in IPython that aren't native and might work with what you are trying to do.

0.1.1 is an older version, I believe. I have no problem installing Fabric on Windows with ActivePython (w/ PyPM):
C:\> pypm install fabric
Ready to perform these actions:
The following packages will be installed:
fabric-0.9.0 pycrypto-2.0.1
Get: [pypm.activestate.com] fabric 0.9.0-1
Get: [pypm.activestate.com] pycrypto 2.0.1-1
Installing fabric-0.9.0
Fixing script C:\Users\sridharr\AppData\Roaming\Python\Scripts\fab-script.py
Installing pycrypto-2.0.1

Download and run easy_install installer for your python version from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools#downloads . ie: setuptools-0.6c11.win32-py2.6.exe
On the command prompt, lauch easy_install -U fabric to install the last fabric release.

Readline should be available with Cygwin, if you want to move your entire stack in that direction.
