I am trying to upgrade certain packages installed at the global(root) level at my user level. Whenever i try to upgrade the package with pip, it simply re-installs the already existing version at the user level.
For example,
$pip install boto --user --upgrade
Collecting boto
Using cached boto-2.42.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl
Installing collected packages: boto
Successfully installed boto-2.9.5
pip downloads boto-2.42 but installs 2.9.5.
I am not sure why this is happening. Any help would be appreciated?
I am using pip 8.1.2
reply to #Evert
The output from pip for pip install boto --user --ignore-installed is
Collecting boto
Using cached boto-2.42.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl
Installing collected packages: boto
Successfully installed boto-2.9.5
Note, pip collects the most recent package but falls back to the old package when installing. I cant seem to understand why this happens. The above works correctly in my other machines but not this. I even tried re-installing pip but it wont work
pip install boto --user --ignore-installed
Try to force a reinstall of the desired package:
pip install --user -U --force-reinstall boto

I have legacy production servers that are still running Python 2.7.6. We have a local environment built from the docker image for ubuntu 14.04 intended to replicate that environment (things still work there once everything is installed.) The packer build script that creates this environment recently stopped working apparently due to PyPi dropping non-SNI support.
I tried using get-pip.py from the docs to download pip:
wget -c https://bootstrap.pypa.io/pip/2.7/get-pip.py
python2 get-pip.py
This gives me the following warning:
DEPRECATION: Python 2.7 reached the end of its life on January 1st, 2020. Please upgrade your Python as Python 2.7 is no longer maintained. pip 21.0 will drop support for Python 2.7 in January 2021. More details about Python 2 support in pip can be found at https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/development/release-process/#python-2-support pip 21.0 will remove support for this functionality.

I don't have pip so I installed a legacy version using
apt-get install python-pip
This installs pip 1.5.4

The link says that SNI support was dropped:
For users of Python 2.7.{0...8}
Upgrading to the last Python 2.7 release is an option.
However, note that Python 2.7 series itself is now End of Life and support in pip was dropped with version 21.0.
For users of Python 2.6.x and lower:
Neither the Python core developers, or pip maintainers support Python 2.6 and below.
If someone is aware of a work around for this issue (SNI support specifically) they are welcome to share it here for others.
There is no recommended solution from the PyPI team.
How can I get a local environment set up for new developers to work on our legacy application? I've created a new Python 3 dev server and local environment but it will be some time before I can roll out the staging and live environments, get everything moved over, and test it.
As the message says, PyPi has discontinued support for Python <2.7.9 as of May 6th 2021. If you're running a version < 2.7.9 and you cannot upgrade to a newer version of Python then your only option is to manually download the wheels from PyPi.
These are the modification I needed to make to my build script to make it work:
I needed to install software-properties-common and gcc
apt-get install -y software-properties-common gcc
Then I downloaded (setuptools](https://pypi.org/project/setuptools/44.1.1/#files) and unzipped and installed it:
python ./setuptools-44.1.1/setup.py install
Next, I downloaded pip and added it to a folder called wheels. Then I could use the whl file to run pip to get pip
python ./wheels/pip-20.3.4-py2.py3-none-any.whl/pip install --no-index --find-links ./wheels/ pip --ignore-installed
It was suggested to build a Docker container using Ubuntu 16.04 with Python 2.7.17 and use that to download the packages.
pip download -r requirements.txt
But the versions of the packages were wrong, so I ended up going through the requirements.txt and downloading each package manually from PyPi and adding it to the wheels folder. A running instance is useful so you can run pip freeze or look at a requirements.txt file to grab the version numbers of all the packages you need.
Now that I could use pip, I can install my other packages:
python pip install --no-index --find-links ./wheels/ -r /root/requirements.txt
This uncovered some dependencies that I hadn't downloaded packages for yet so I had to go through and download those and added them to the wheels folder. There were a few other things I found needed different versions than I had originally downloaded and a few packages relied on pbr and many more wanted wheel:
pip install --no-index --find-links ./wheels/ pbr==5.5.1 wheel==0.36.2
I also needed to download cMake and add it to the wheels folder
After that I could install my requirements.txt:
pip install --no-index --find-links ./wheels/ -r /root/requirements.txt --ignore-installed
May be late to the party but something similar happened to me while trying to make an HTTPS request with Python 2.7.6 (lack of SNI support). This was causing a lot of issues on a remote web server I work on.
Looking for answers I tried installing urllib3[secure] and entered a loophole since pip was complaining about a lack of SNI support to install this and other packages as well.
I found out this StackOverflow answer which helped me install the required dependencies to make Python 2.7.6 and pip itself support SNI as well as install urllib[secure].
You need to create a folder containing the required wheels (download them from PyPi using wget for instance):
pip, asn1crypto, enum34, idna, six, ipaddress, pyOpenSSL, cffi,
cryptography wheels; and also pycparser (a non-wheel, it will be a
tar.gz)
Make sure the wheels you download support Python 2.7 and that you install pip before the rest of them.
In the original answer, its stated you can use python -m OpenSSL.debug to verify everything worked correctly (a ModuleNotFoundError would mean the pyOpenSSL package was not installed). You can also use pip -Vto check that the new pip version was installed correctly as well.
After updating pip and installing these dependencies I was able to install urllib3[secure] and get SNI support from python as well as pip.
Good luck!
I am sharing this answer as an update to Jonathan Rys's answer that contains the steps required as of the date of this answer. I tried to keep this concise.

For Ubuntu 20.04, I have installed build-essential sudo apt-get install build-essential
I installed Python 2 from source, downloading tar bundle and built and installed this. Note, I removed the python command, to avoid that old confusion, so we have python2 and python2.7 and also python3 (for example).
tar xf Python-2.7.18.tgz
cd Python-2.7.18
./configure && make && sudo make install
(cd /usr/local/bin;sudo rm python python-config)
cd ..
Now to get pip installed. Download setuptools zip archive. Then install it:
unzip setuptools-44.1.1.zip
cd setuptools-44.1.1
python2 bootstrap.py
sudo python2 setup.py install
cd ..
Next, I downloaded pip .tar.gz archive. Then unpack and install it. Note, I took extra steps to preserve and restore the original python3 pip in /usr/local/bin. Pip for Python2 are still available as pip2 and pip2.7 in the same directory.
tar xf pip-20.3.4.tar.gz
cd pip-20.3.4
(cd /usr/local/bin;sudo mv pip pip-save)
sudo python2 setup.py install
(cd /usr/local/bin;sudo mv pip-save pip)
Now that I could use pip, I can install the most important package any Python user should install, ipython. Note that I do a user install for this and also preserve my "ipython" command to run python3 and have ipython2 to run python2:
pip2.7 install ipython
(cd ~/.local/bin;rm ipython;ln -s ipython3 ipython)
and it works!
$ ipython2

I want to install numpy,PIL packages into Nao robot's hardware for my project. (python 2.7, Nao 1.14.5 Gentoo lınux) How Could I do that? Thanks in advance.
As mentioned here: You might also not have root access on Nao, which limits where you can install.
you can install python packages with pip install but you need the --user tag
upgrade pip as descriped in the other post and
try
pip install --user yourPackage
respective:
/home/nao/.local/bin/pip install --user yourPackage
this will install the package to a directory where you have write access without root.
I have issues with regards to the upgrade from pip v8.1.2 to v9.0.0. I have read several other posts on previous upgrades but the solutions were not valid for my problem.
I have installed Python 3.6.0b2 (runs on macOS Sierra) and I cannot manage to upgrade pip anymore.
When I run $ pip install --upgrade pip I get an Exception which points to /Library/Python/2.7 folders.
When I run $ pip3 install --upgrade pip I get an Exception which points to /Library/Python/3.5 folders.
Both time I get a message telling me to consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip'. How could I fix this ?
Many thanks in advance.
I have multiple versions of pip and python on my CentOS. When I type pip2.7 install --upgrade pip it becomes clear that pip2.7 is trying to upgrade a different version of pip as the path to the pip it is trying to upgrade is not the same as the path yielded by which pip2.7
How do I make pip upgrade the proper pip and not the 2.6 pip?
I resolved this by upgrading pip, making my 2.6 pip utilize python 2.7 instead. For whatever reason, both pip and pip2.7 were upgraded. Then I reinstalled pip using yum package manager so it is now 2.6
I've just learned how to use virtualenv and I installed Django 1.4.5. I'm assuming that the virtualenv created a clean slate for me to work on so with the Django 1.4.5 installed, I copied all my previous files into the virtualenv environment.
I tried to run the server but I get an error saying "no module named MySQLdb". I think this means that I forgot to install MySQL-python. I tried to install it via
pip install MySQL-python

Not quite sure how to go about fixing this problem =/ any help much appreciated!
I recently had exactly this issue (just not in relation to Django). In my case I am developing on Ubuntu 12.04 using the default pip and distribute versions, which are basically a little out of date for MySQL-python.
Because you are working in an isolated virtualenv, you can safely follow the suggested instruction without affecting your Python installation.
So you can...
workon your_virtualenv #activate your virtualenv, you do use virtualenvwrapper, right?
easy_install -U distribute #update distribute on your virtualenv
pip install MySQL-python #install your package
If for some reason upgrading distribute is not an option, you could try installing an older version of MySQL-python as follows (you'd have to check this version is compatible with your version of Django):
pip install MySQL-python==x.y.z #where x.y.z is the version you want
Spent an hour looking through stackoverflow. Evntually found answer in the other question. This is what saved me:
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
mysql_config goes with the package.
When doing in a virtualenv :
pip install MySQL-python
I got
EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found
To install mysql_config, as Artem Fedosov said, first install
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
then everything works fine in virtualenv
MySQL driver for Python (mysql-python) needs libmysqlclient-dev. You can get it with:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
If python-dev is not installed, you may have to install it too:
sudo apt-get install python-dev
Now you can install MySQL driver:
pip install mysql-python
Here is a more detailed documentation for MySQL in Django:
http://codex.themedelta.com/how-to-install-django-with-mysql-in-a-virtualenv-on-linux/
I had to do this:
pip install mysql-python
inside the virtualenv
The commands are always run in ubuntu:
easy_install -U distribute
later
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
and finally
pip install MySQL-python
The suggested solutions didn't work out for me, because I still got compilation errors after running
`$ sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev`
so I had to run
apt-get install python-dev
Then everything worked fine for me with
apt-get install python-dev
Try this:
Version Python 2.7
MySQL-python package, you should use either MySQL_python‑1.2.5‑cp27‑none‑win32.whl or
MySQL_python‑1.2.5‑cp27‑none‑win_amd64.whl depending on whether you have installed 32-bit or 64-bit Python.
pip install MySQL_python‑1.2.5‑cp27‑none‑win32.whl
if you are using mysqlclient package, then use
mysqlclient‑1.4.6‑cp27‑cp27m‑win32.whl or
mysqlclient‑1.4.6‑cp27‑cp27m‑win_amd64.whl
pip install mysqlclient‑1.4.6‑cp27‑cp27m‑win32.whl
