**When I try running Python scripts which use twisted, I get an error saying that twisted is not installed. That is:
ImportError: No module named twisted.python**
The problem here is that you're using sudo when you shouldn't be. And that's causing pip to try to install into /usr/local/lib instead of ~/glenv/lib. (And, because you used sudo, it's successfully doing so, but that doesn't help you, because you're not allowing system site-packages in your venv.)
There are multiple reasons sudo pip could lead to this behavior, but the most likely is this: On most systems (including the various Mac and RHEL/CentOS boxes I have immediate access to), the sudoers file will reset your environment, then add back in a handful of whitelisted environment variables. This means that when you sudo pip, it will not see the environment variables that virtualenv sets up, so it will fall back to doing the default thing and install into your system Python, instead of your venv.
But really, it doesn't matter why this is happening. The answer is the same: just do pip install instead of sudo pip install.
Note that you also want to remove the sudo on the virtualenv call, as this will probably cause the venv to be set up incorrectly (which is why you need the sudo chmod, which wouldn't be necessary otherwise). The whole point of installing things under your user home directory is that you can do it with your normal user permissions.
As a side note, you also may want to upgrade to a newer virtualenv/pip, as 1.8 and 1.2 have some bug fixes and improvements. But I verified that I get exactly the same problem as you even with the latest (1.8.4 and 1.2.1) versions, so I don't think that's relevant here.
The sudo pip is causing the problem here. It will install the package in your system instead of the virtual environment you created. So when it says the requirement is already satisfied. Try to look add the directory it is pointing to. Which is in your case, while you were trying to install, was /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
If it's inside something like /usr/local/lib/..., which does not points to your virtualenv folder then it is installed in your system. Otherwise, in correct scenario it will look something like this /usr/local/lib/..../<name of your virtualenv>/lib.
You can always use commands like which python & which pip to see if they both are using the placeholder of our virtual environment.

I uploaded my package to testpypi, and installed it via:
pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ myporj==0.1.6
However it refuse to install it by saying:
Requirement already satisfied: myproj==0.1.6 in ./projs/myproj (0.1.6)
I guess I may add the project in editable mode:
pip install --editable .
However, I know want to disable it. I tried:
python setup.py develop --uninstall
But it has no effect.
It may be worth creating a separate env (Virtual Environments) for the installation.
Here are some articles on this subject:
https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/venv.html
https://packaging.python.org/guides/installing-using-pip-and-virtual-environments/#creating-a-virtual-environment
Or does it need to be installed in the same place?
You can try to find your package pip search myporj or pip list for show all packages.
And uninstall it later pip uninstall myporj (it may require the right of sudo in linux) then install again.
Maybe you may need --no-cache-dir option to ignore the cache during installation. Here is more details: https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/reference/pip_install/#caching
I'm trying to write a script that uses speedtest-cli, I have installed the module with pip install speedtest-cli. If I run pip install speedtest-cli I get the following
Requirement already satisfied: speedtest-cli in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
If I try to use pip with the default python, as recommended by another answer here, like so python -m pip install speedtest-cli I get
/usr/bin/python: No module named pip
I figured that the pip is setup for one of the other versions of python but the only version of python in /usr/local/bin is python3 and in /usr/bin there is python, python2.6, and python2.7 but I have tried defining each ones of those as the interpreter at the top of the file and none of them works, each producing giving the same import error on the speedtest module.
Which version of python is pip linked to then, or why is the installed module not importing?
The easiest solution was to completed a fresh start.
Remove all references to easy_install, python, and pip using the following;
rm -r easy_install*
rm -r pip*
rm -r python*
Then I used this guide to properly install, setup, and configure python with HomeBrew, with pip and virtualenv installed.
The article is fairly lengthy so I'm not going to copy it all out here but here is an image snapshot in case the link goes dead.
I am using pip to install all my python packages but get error as shown in the trace below. What is the problem and how can I solve it?

There is a similar problem (Why does pip fail with bad md5 hash for package?) from 2013 the solution that I tried that worked for me is this:
sudo pip install --no-cache-dir flask
given by attolee
The problem here is the Python package was updated with new hash value while pip was trying to install the Python package using the old hash value cached in pip cache directory. This cache needs to be purge before the pip install attempt. So the full solution is:
python -m pip cache purge
python -m pip install <package>
--no-cache-dir did not work for me in raspberry pi 4 at first.
Found that the problem was due to unexpected network change/failure during pip installation
I had to download the broken .whl file manually with wget
and install it like below:
sudo pip install scipy-1.3.0-cp37-cp37m-linux_armv7l.whl
followed by
sudo pip install --no-cache-dir keras
Then it worked.
Looks like a cache problem, the cached package is different from REQUIREMENTS.
Perhaps caused by last updates interruption.
I did this which fixed my problem:
rm ~/.cache/pip -rf
You need to upgrade your pip into the newer version:
Using this command:
python -m pip install -upgrade pip
for Mac/Linux operating system and use
python -m pip install --upgrade tensorflow
for Windows to update your pip. Then run your command
pip install flask
In case you got this error while using pipenv try
$ pipenv --clear
$ pipenv lock
$ pipenv install
first, try to upgrade your pip then install the library
python -m pip install -upgrade pip
if it didn't work just try to install it without the cash
pip install --no-cache-dir the_library_name
I got the error during installing panads
You need to remove the cache and reinstall .
pip install --no-cache-dir flask
I had a similar issue for a different module. It was caused by network failure. My fix was nothing complex but another attempt at installing it and it worked.
maybe pipiserver(where you pip install from) upload a pkg for example flask-1.0.0.tar.gz, and rm is upload a new flask-1.0.0.tag.gz,if new pkg code has changed ,the hash must be different,there is two ways:
installl an older pkg version =, pip install flask==0.0.9
wait new pkg release flask==1.0.1 or cache expiration.
I have tried to clear pip cache with "-m pip cache purge" and using the "--no-cache-dir" argument but it was not helping.
In my case it was VPN being active during the attempts to install the package. As soon as I have turned it off everything worked as expected.
Okay, so I have brew, and I've brew reinstalled python since El Capitan.
MacBook-Pro-2:decipher Alex$ which python
/usr/local/bin/python
MacBook-Pro-2:decipher Alex$ whereis python
/usr/bin/python
I have two pythons. That's all well and good. Brew doctor is clean, except for some Unbrewed header files were found in /usr/local/include, none of which seem related to Python. Short of virtualenv, is there any way to install packages anymore? I feel like I might be missing something.
Just like this guy I was trying to get IPython. I don't really need it, so I gave up the other day. Now I need Pylint. If I try to install it with pip:
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/lib/python2.7/site-packages/logilab_common-1.1.0-py2.7-nspkg.pth'
Does anyone know how to point pip towards another instance of python on my system, or do something else so I can have the old behavior back? Please?
-- EDITS --
Suggested was the idea of using /usr/local/bin/pip to install ipython. This is the output. I can't figure out how to use ipython still.
MacBook-Pro-2:MNIST Alex$ /usr/local/bin/pip install ipython[all]
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): ipython[all] in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): traitlets in /usr/local/bin (from ipython[all])
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): pickleshare in /usr/local/bin (from ipython[all])
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): simplegeneric>0.8 in /usr/local/bin (from ipython[all])
... the rest of the requirements are all satisfied in usr/local/bin
I had trouble too with El Capitan. I did these things and it worked:
1) Install Homebrew
2) Install Python 3 with Homebrew
3) In terminal enter these installs (in this order)
$ pip3 install pyobjc-core
$ pip3 install pyobjc
$ pip3 install pillow
$ pip3 install pyautogui
To point pip to another Python instance of your system, you need to use pip from the same bin/ folder where python is installed so it resolves to the same site-packages.
Example:
/usr/local/bin/pip install logilab_common
To make /usr/local/ writable by a local user on OSX do:
sudo chown -R `whoami`:admin /usr/local/*

As Mikko Ohtamaa points out in the comments, somehow, I had a version of python in a folder called /lib. I'm not sure how it got there. I think that's the version of python I was using. Once I just sudo rm -rf /lib everything suddenly worked.
I install virtualenv with command sudo /usr/bin/pip-2.6 install virtualenv
And it says
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade):
virtualenv in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages
Cleaning up...
Why pip from /usr/bin looks to /usr/local/lib?
I need to install virtualenv scripts directly to /usr/bin, so I write
sudo /usr/bin/pip-2.6 install --install-option="--install-scripts=/usr/bin" virtualenv
But again it responds with
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade):
virtualenv in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages
Cleaning up...
Adding --upgrade doesn't help.
How can I install virtualenv scripts to /usr/bin ?
For your current issue can you first uninstall virtualenv using pip, and then reinstall using --script-dir=DIR, -s DIR as an --install-option.
As for your issue running pip with extra arguments and install not seeming to do anything, that may be fixed on develop branch at https://github.com/pypa/pip if not please file a bug with us on the GitHub issue tracker for pip.
As to why it is behaving like this - the install is based on the python installation not on the location of pip. Pip uses setuptools/distribute under the hood and conforms to the configuration of the python it is running under.
You can see where the version of python you are using installs to by running it - in this case probably python2.6 and querying the sys module.
>>> import sys
>>> sys.prefix
>>> sys.exec_prefix

Try:
sudo /usr/bin/pip-2.6 install --install-option="--prefix=/usr/bin" virtualenv
