pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'pip==20.2.3' distribution was not found and is required by the application
For some reason it says it's accessing /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7.
If I type in which pip3 it outputs, /usr/local/bin/pip3.
And so I used that to put in my path like so, export PATH="/usr/local/bin/pip3:$PATH"
I also did the same thing with python3:
which python3 and outputs, /usr/bin/python3
And then I used it to put in my path:
export PATH="/usr/bin/python3:$PATH"
However, for some reason my MacBook thinks to use python 2 and regular pip.
I want to be able to use pip3.

Why is pyinstaller not loading/executing

Whenever I try and use pyinstaller after installing it using pip install (on mac), I receive the following errors. Can someone help me resolve this. Use which pyinstaller finds the path, but trying to add to $PATH does not find it:
Traceback (most recent call last):

This is the output of adding to $PATH:
$PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin/pyinstaller
-bash: /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/go/bin:/Applications/Wireshark.app/Contents/MacOS=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/go/bin:/Applications/Wireshark.app/Contents/MacOS:/usr/local/bin/pyinstaller: No such file or directory

I got this same error... was able to solve it by installing an updated altgraph package under my user's python path. Hope this helps someone else that finds this page.
pip install --user altgraph==0.15

How to change the install path of pip

when used below command I get these errors
sudo pip install sqlalchemy

line 858, in resolve
raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'pip==9.0.3' distribution was
not found and is required by the application
I then tried for pip version and got the below output
pip --version
pip 9.0.3 from /usr/lib/python3.4/dist-packages (python 3.4)

Creating environment variable PIP_TARGET can help or edit pip.conf file.
Another way is to use -t
sudo pip install sympy -t /path

When I put in pip --version into the terminal I get this error: "The 'pip==9.0.1' distribution was not found and is required by the application"

I put pip --version into the terminal and receive this:

I'm using Mac

Executing:
sudo easy_install pip
should solve this issue.

I am unable to use EasyBlogger Python script with PyPandoc

Formerly I used googlecl, but it doesn1t work anymore due to authentication issues, google dropped OAuth1 support, or something. Then I tried EasyBlogger script to post blogposts from command line, but it proved very tricky: http://blog.rraghur.in/p/blog-page.html
I simply followed the steps on that page. First I had to install a package called Pandoc. It took about 3 weeks for me to finding out how to install it. Finally I managed to install it as a package pandoc-static for my Arch Linux box. Unfortunately easyblogger script still doesn't work, however I also installed a package called pypandoc from github:
When I run it with python2, I get error messages:

I really need some blogger script, because all of my blogs are out of order now for about 2 months.
