Cannot create .exe with pyinstaller from .py with torchaudio (CPU): AttributeError: '_OpNamespace' 'torchaudio' object has no attribute 'cuda_version'

I have a .py script that uses torchaudio (without GPU) to process some sound in Windows. To distribute it, I've used pyinstaller to turn it into a .exe. You can reproduce the issue with this simple script:
import torchaudio
import time
if __name__ == '__main__':
t = torchaudio.transforms
time.sleep(3)
print("Success")
This script correctly runs from a python console python test.py but I want to create a test.exe that works in Windows (without having python installed). I create test.exe by using pyinstaller: pyinstaller test.py. This creates a build/test folder with all the required dependencies (around 1GB). test.exe is located inside that folder but when I double click on it, it fails with the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "torch\_ops.py", line 501, in __getattr__
op, overload_names = torch._C._jit_get_operation(qualified_op_name)
RuntimeError: No such operator torchaudio::cuda_version
The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

AttributeError: '_OpNamespace' 'torchaudio' object has no attribute 'cuda_version'
[11648] Failed to execute script 'test' due to unhandled exception!
The environment uses:
python==3.9.15
torch==1.13.0
six==1.15.0
numpy==1.22.4
scipy==1.6.0
sounddevice==0.4.5
torchaudio==0.13.0
pyinstaller==5.6.2
Note: I tried the same installing torch with cuda ending up with the same error and a build 4 times bigger.

I was able to make the script work. Here are the steps I took to get it to run.
Create a new empty directory and pasted your script in as main.py
py -m venv venv && venv\scripts\activate && py -m pip install --upgrade pip pyinstaller
pip install torchaudio==0.13.0 torch==1.13.0 numpy=1.22.4 sounddevice==0.4.5 six==1.15.0 scipy
pyinstaller -F main.py
Go into venv\Lib\site-packages and copy the entire torchaudio folder and paste it into the top level directory alongside venv and main.py
In main.spec set datas=[('./torchaudio','./torchaudio')]
pyinstaller main.spec
And after compiling the executable runs... it still gives off a few warnings, but it runs and prints the success message.

How to fix a bad upgrade of pip on python3

Before someone slaps my hand, I had installed venv/virtualenv to setup virtual environments but I had other issues so someone suggested I upgrade my pip3 version to the current version (22.0.4 right now)
I somehow messed up both pip and pip3 so hopefully someone can help me.
I tried to upgrade my version of pip on my Ubuntu 16.04 box by running
pip3 install --upgrade pip
I also tried running
pip3 install --upgrade pip3
After upgrading, I kept getting errors when trying to run pip3 so I removed it, planning to install with the get-pip.py script.
However, now when I try to install pip3 using
sudo python3 /tmp/get-pip.py
I keep getting an AttributeError:
$ sudo python3 /tmp/get-pip.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: module 'copy' has no attribute 'copy'
Can someone point me to instructions on how to re-install pip/pip3 or how to get around this AttributeError? Hopefully the solution will also keep my old modules that I had downloaded from before too. Thanks

Check if there is a file /tmp/copy.py or directory+file /tmp/copy/__init__.py. Try these commands: sudo python3 -c "import copy; print(copy.copy)" and sudo python3 -c "import copy; print(copy.__file__)"
If any of those exists it will be imported instead of standard module copy because Python prepends the directory of a script (the script is /tmp/get-pip.py, the directory /tmp/) at the beginning of sys.path so it's where Python starts to find modules/packages.

How to use imports from requirements.txt in python

I am attempting to use a python file in a basic web application. I have my two requirements (docx and xlrd) in my requirements.txt file, but when the python file tries to import either of the requirements, it cannot find the module. I am currently working on Repl.it. Pictures are attached.
I have tried to import only in either location, but I either fail to import the necessary packages, or I cannot refer to functions from the necessary file.
Requirements.txt -
xlrd==1.2.0
docx==0.2.4
other
script.py -
import docx
from docx.enum.table import WD_ALIGN_VERTICAL
import xlrd
error -

You need to install the packages using the command pip install -r requirements.txt. If they aren't installed, it isn't going to find them.
The requirements.txt file is simply a way to tell users of your package what requirements there are for your program, and then let them install all of them easily through PyPi using the pip program. It doesn't actually tell python to install them for you.

Python / PIP broken on Ubuntu 16.04

I think my Python / PIP environment on a Ubuntu 16.04 machine is broken. I just want to install a program using PIP using this command:
pip3 install --user ocrmypdf
But it doesn't work. When running
pip3 --version
I get this error:

Motionless hasn't been updated since 06/08/2010 according to the PyPi Package Index.
I've downloaded it and get the same error immediately just by running:
import motionless
print(motionless.__version__)
It's also not flagged as being Python 3.4 compatible in PyPi; if you are running the latest version of Python this is likely the issue. Have you tried running it with Python 2.7 instead?
Edit: Looking at the Python 2.7 docs; it states here that != and <> are equvilent, however <> is deprecated. In the Python 3.4 docs it states here that only != is supported, no mention of <> so I imagine it's been removed.
You could try instead:
Raising an issue on the GitHub Repo; the author may still be updating the library and not know it's incompatible with Python 3.4
Checking out the code yourself from the GitHub Repo and manually fixing the problem (Check out 2to3 for automatically doing this. It will convert all <> usage to != for you)
