Virtualenv: distutils.util not found but is installed

I'm sorry to make another thread on a question that seems to have been asked many times but I've read many and still can't figure out how to resolve it.
I'm using virtualenv 20.15.0+ds to make a venv in python 3.9
┌──(venv)─(marco㉿kali)-[~/tools/OldProgram]
└─$ python --version
Python 3.9.13
But this error occurs:
┌──(venv)─(marco㉿kali)-[~/tools/OldProgram]
└─$ pip list

so it's a version problem? And if yes, can I install another version isolated in the virtualenv?
(I also tried to change the version of pip and other version of python but still remain the same problem.)

pip installing eyeD3 module. Failed to find libmagic

Trying to install eyed3 but it's giving me this error:
>>> import eyed3
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#8>", line 1, in <module>
import eyed3
File "C:\Users\Dylan\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\lib\site-packages\eyed3\__init__.py", line 35, in <module>

raise ImportError('failed to find libmagic. Check your installation')
ImportError: failed to find libmagic. Check your installation
Here's the pip install:
I tried to uninstall with pip and delete all the eyed3 files, then re-install and it still gave the same error. It also does the same thing with easy_install.

On Windows
You'll need DLLs for libmagic. #julian-r has uploaded a version of this project that includes binaries to pypi: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-magic-bin/0.4.14
pip install python-magic-bin==0.4.14
Works for me.

I fixed it by installing libmagic with this command
brew install libmagic

You need to install libmagic before you install eye3d.
Here is a link to the git.
https://github.com/ahupp/python-magic#dependencies
You can use this to install it:
pip install python-magic

pycrypto : No module named strxor

I got this error :
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test.py", line 8, in <module>
from Crypto.Cipher import PKCS1_OAEP
File "C:\Users\Mokhles\Downloads\google-api-python-client-1.5.3\Crypto \Cipher\PKCS1_OAEP.py", line 57, in <module>

from Crypto.Util.strxor import strxor
ImportError: No module named strxor
any idea how to solve it?
ENV:
-windows 10
-python 2.7

It looks like you're simply copied pyCrypto into your project. PyCrypto is library which depends on some native library/code (like libtomcrypt). You have to install it properly. You can do this for example through pip:
pip2 install pycrypto
or
pip3 install pycrypto
depending on which Python version you want to make it available.

try conda install pydotplus (may need to install tqdm first)

Tensorflow pip built from source fails on 'import tensorflow'

Any thoughts?
Thanks

This does look like a protobuf library versioning error. There's a long thread on similar issues here:
https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/11
Towards the end there are some suggested solutions that might help.

I succeed in running TensorFlow 0.7 on a manjaro linux laptop using cuda acceleration by running python with optirun:
$optirun python
However, I had problem with protobuf and I had to uninstall/reinstall previous version of protobuf and tensorflow with pip. http://bit.ly/1RHApU5

This is because of protobuf version conflict:
for me i had python-protobuf v2.6.1 installed from apt-get package manager
and while installing tensorflow it installed protobuf v3.3.0 from pip manager
so i uninstalled both:
sudo pip uninstall protobuf
sudo apt-get remove python-protobuf
Reinstalled using pip and it solved the issue!!!
sudo pip install protobuf
Hope this helps..

python nosetests won't work

I was learning Python from 'learning python the hard way' and I was stuck at exercise 46 (http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/ex46.html).
I installed pip and then the nose package and whenever i run nosetest now as in the example it doesn't work. This is the error I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/nosetests", line 5, in <module>
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 2807, in <module>
parse_requirements(__requires__), Environment()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 594, in resolve
raise DistributionNotFound(req)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: nose==1.3.0
I googled about this but couldn't find an answer.
I am on a Lubuntu 13.04 desktop.

You need to install a version of nose equal to 1.3.0 (maybe the nose version that you installed is not 1.3.0?)
You can find out what version of nose you have installed with
>>> import nose
>>> nose.__version__
'1.3.0'
Using pip this is as simple as (if you already have nose installed then you will want to use the --upgrade flag)
pip install --upgrade nose==1.3.0
or even direct from the website
pip install -Iv https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/n/nose/nose-1.3.0.tar.gz#md5=95d6d32b9d6b029c3c65674bd9e7eabe
