ImportError: cannot import name 'ensure_str' from 'six' - python

when i tried to install netfilterqueue this error came up.
even i can't uninstall/check/install using pip.
And i searched over the stackoverflow and one of those said use :
sudo pip install -U setuptools
And again this error came up.

Thanks in advance.


I was able to make this work by copying six.py from https://github.com/benjaminp/six.git into /usr/lib/python3.8/six.py ... you'll need sudo to create or update this file.

Installing html5lib for Python on Ubunto

Dependencies on html5lib are pretty broad across developer tools on Linux. I uncovered this issue while attempting to implement the selenium test suite for my Django app. When I attempt to pip install, I receive the below error. How do I adjust my system to grab and install html5lib?

This also occurs if I want to upgrade pip:
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
I upgraded Ubuntu 16.04 to 20.04. I am sure that I have deleted Python 2.
sudo update-alternatives --config python3
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for python3
And i used sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/bin/python3 10 without errors
update-alternatives: using /usr/bin/python3 to provide /usr/bin/python (python) in auto mode
I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance.

How solve this Import error when pip list at venv?

I am using python3.8.8 in windows10. I just typed pip list in
venv(CMD) which showed a big error. I was using this venv for pip
installing tensorflow which also showed this similar error

I thought it was just a problem with the list command and forgot about it, so I installed a pip package. However, when I put the command in, I still got the same error message. Pip was working fine before so I don't know if there's a problem with a piece of code I need to fix or something.

I am receiving this error on multiple commands, similar to the problem explained in this question. But I am not even able to run it in sudo, non-sudo(if thats a thing) and also root account(I specifically logged into the root account to run this, but failed)
Here is the error I am thrown every time.

Note : I was initially trying to install tensorflow, then other commands like pip freeze and pip uninstall some-package also threw this error.
I have already tried reinstalling pip without any errors. I am on Manjaro, so i ran
pacman -Rcn python-pip
and then
pacman -S python-pip

$ pacman -S extra/python-six did the trick!
