I'm trying to install ckanclient on Python 3.3 using pip. The command line I'm using is:
c:\Python33\Scripts>pip install ckanclient
I'm getting:

Cleaning up...
I need a clue about what is happening there and how to fix it. My OS is Windows 7 Pro, I'm using the standard Python distribution (I also have Anaconda Python installed, but this doesn't look like a version conflict).
The full error log is in: http://pastebin.com/NgFFCrcK
ckanclient, as well as CKAN itself, is not compatible with Python 3. You'll need 2.7.
Another hint: ckanclient is deprecated, see https://github.com/okfn/ckanclient-deprecated. However, if for some reason you really need it please do not use the rather old pip (e.g. pypi) version, but the up-to-date one from github.

I needed to install Setuptools for a project I was doing, and I had to download Setuptools through a .tar file (don't ask), but when ran the command I needed to use to install it:
C:\Users\myname\Downloads\setuptools-51.1.1>py -2 setup.py install
It ended up with a SyntaxError:
Traceback (most recent call last):

raise SyntaxError(e) from e
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
I'm using Python 2.7.
Why is it showing the error, and how can I fix it?
Edit:
When I looked into the __init__.py file, I found that there was something called an "invalid marker":
try:
marker = packaging.markers.Marker(text)
return marker.evaluate()
except packaging.markers.InvalidMarker as e:
raise SyntaxError(e) from e
The last version of setuptools to support Python 2.7 was 44.1.1 (Jan 2020). See the changelog.
Upgrade your Python version in order to use setuptools 51.1.1.
I'm tring to install django-dbsettings with pip but it causes the following error:

TypeError: find_packages() got an unexpected keyword argument 'include'
Also I'm using pip 1.0 and python 2.7.
How can I fix it?
There is no include keyword in find_packages() using older versions of setuptools, you need to upgrade:
pip install -U setuptools
I would also update pip.

This hints at a problem when checking what the Python version is, but googling around did not help me this time.
I'm aware that python packages sometimes have dependencies on host software, eg to install psycopg2 I had to first install the Postgres development packages on the operating system.
So how do I fix this error?
Your ec2 instance needs to be running (at least) Python 2.7.
sys.version_info didn't become a named tuple until 2.7.

In fact cql is dependent on Thrift which probably not support python3
Any solution??
Thrift does indeed explicitly not support Python 3, it's metadata is marked as supporting Python 2 only, and installing it gives you a Syntax error.
The solution is to contact the authors of Thrift and help them port to Python 3. and once that is done, help port cql. Updating is usually easy (except in some special cases) and fun!
No, the cql library is not compatible with Python 3. It relies on thrift, a package that is not Python 3 compatible itself:

File "<string>", line 16, in <module>
File "/Users/mj/Development/venvs/stackoverflow-3.3/build/thrift/setup.py", line 45
except DistutilsPlatformError, x:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
cql itself uses the same obsolete syntax in cqltypes.py:
except (ValueError, AssertionError, IndexError), e:
Both thrift and cql need to be ported first.
For Python 3, you can use CQLEngine.

Similarly installing oauth2 also fails. But installing selenium succeeds.
Now what could be the thing that is causing this failure?
Thanks in advance.
Like many packages, rauth currently does not support Python 3. However, it looks like there is a branch where they are working on it. See here.
In general, you may have more luck installing packages if you use Python 2.7.
