If I am looking at the Anaconda Packages (http://docs.continuum.io/anaconda/pkg-docs), there is a package named "nbconvert" in version 4.0.0.
On the github site of nbconvert (https://github.com/jupyter/nbconvert/releases) there is a newer version (i need this one) 4.1.0. Now how to install this version on my machine? If i try to
conda install nbconvert
It will install version 4.0.0. but I need this new one
If I try to search for this package with
anaconda search -t conda nbconvert
It only finds the 4.0.0 version
The easiest way is to temporarily replace conda's nbconvert with the latest version of pip.
Here's how you can do that:
conda remove nbconvert
pip install nbconvert
After that you can check the version of nbconvert by typing jupyter nbconvert --version. If everything worked out, you will see 4.1.0.
Note that this is just meant to be a temporary workaround until continuum analytics' developers update the package. Don't forget to pip uninstall and conda install when switching back to conda's version.

I'm working on a Pyramid project that has to be deployed in a Debian 7 server.
The Debian 7 server has the python version 2.7.3 as from the archives repositories.
After creating a virtual environment with virtualenv command the pip version installed in this virtualenv is 1.1.
First thing noted: I can't upgrade pip with pip install --upgrade pip. The version is not updated and remains in 1.1 version.
After installing the OS packages needed to install the project I ran python setup.py install but I get the error:
Searching for zipp==0.5
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/zipp/
Couldn't find index page for 'zipp' (maybe misspelled?)
Scanning index of all packages (this may take a while)
Reading http://pypi.python.org/simple/
No local packages or download links found for zipp==0.5
error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('zipp==0.5')
So, the python setup.py install command could not recognize the zipp package.
I thought that this was related to the older version of pip (1.1). So I could update pip version successfully using the index-url option:
$ pip install --index-url https://pypi.python.org/simple --upgrade pip
That updated pip version from 1.1 to 20.3b1. Then I tried python setup.py install again, but the same error occurred.
What I could see is that, after updating pip version, the zipp==0.5.0 package is installed if I ran pip install zipp==0.5.
I'm new to Pyramid and the package installing using the setup.py module. I'm not understanding why I can install the zipp package with pip and can't with python setup.py install.
I'm not putting the content of setup.py here because I think it's not a problem of the setup.py script. With more recent versions of python and pip in an Ubuntu 18.04 machine the setup.py works like a charm.
Someone could explain how to solve this issue?
When you run python setup.py install directly, you are not using pip, so the version of pip you have installed is irrelevant. This command is antiquated, should not be used, etc, etc. The right answer is to use pip install . as a replacement for python setup.py install and to use pip install -e . as a replacement for python setup.py develop.
With respect to what you're seeing, when you run python setup.py install this using the version of easy_install bundled with setuptools to talk to PyPI and install dependencies. This should be avoided for a lot of reasons but just know that to override urls it uses they go in ~/.pydistutils.cfg and have nothing to do with pip. HTTPS is one problem that you looked at, another is that old versions of Python do not have the right CA trust store, nor support the minimum required TLS 1.2 to handshake with PyPI. So expect lots of problems using old tools - at the very least try to use pip instead of easy_install.
I want to update my django version (1.8 ->1.9).
My current version was installed using pip (pip install Django) .
Now I need to install a newer version without pip.
I think I should run from the django package folder, using the setup.py file:
python setup.py install
[I've installed some other packages using a setup.py file .]
The question - will that create some problems? And, does the setup.py install method take care for uninstalling the older version? Or I have to uninstall manually somehow?
I don't have internet connection in this computer, so no pip.
Download a release (they are available on GitHub), and copy to your computer.
Then use pip install to install the archive. For example
pip install django-1.9.3.tar.gz
For more ways to use pip install, see the docs.
I'm trying to follow this tutorial.
First step would be to install DeCaf.
I'm farely new to Python and so far I've only installed packages via easy_install, pip or Windows binaries.
How do I go about installing the DeCaf package? I tried downloading the ZIP from Github, and do a python setup.py install but it doesn't seem to work.
I'm on Windows 7, and use Anaconda 1.8.
Thanks,
G
You can use the pip that ships with anaconda. Not sure that this library works on Windows as it requires c++ compiler with omp thread. From the anaconda terminal try:
pip install git+https://github.com/UCB-ICSI-Vision-Group/decaf-release.git
You can try the following:
i.e: installing ipdb package which is not there in anaconda list:
Following will try to install package from anaconda:
conda install ipdb
Following will show list of repo's from where you can install the package with versions:
anaconda search -t conda ipdb
Following will show more details about the package and repo:
anaconda show conda-forge/ipdb
Finally this will install the package from the repo:
conda install --channel https://conda.anaconda.org/conda-forge ipdb
I'm test driving the Django 1.6b, Python 3.3.2 (compiled from source) and pyvenv with Ubuntu 12.04.
Every time I try and install perform a pip install [package] the package attempts to install itself globally rather than into my local environment. A simple workflow is as follows:
$ pyvenv environments/roebk
$ source environments/roebk/bin/activate
$ (roebk) pip install south
error: could not create '/usr/local/lib/python3.3/site-packages/south': Permission denied
I've double checked that I'm using the correct version of pip.
$ pip -V
pip 1.4 from /usr/local/lib/python3.3/site-packages/pip-1.4-py3.3.egg (python 3.3)
Am I missing anything obvious?
Did you install setuptools and pip into the environment? virtualenv installs setuptools and pip automatically into a new environment.
$ virtualenv qwerty
New python executable in qwerty/bin/python
Installing setuptools............done.
Installing pip...............done.
$
According to the pyvenv docs you need to install them into the new environment manually.
Common installation tools such as Distribute and pip work as expected
with venvs - i.e. when a venv is active, they install Python packages
into the venv without needing to be told to do so explicitly. Of
course, you need to install them into the venv first: this could be
done by running distribute_setup.py with the venv activated, followed
by running easy_install pip. Alternatively, you could download the
source tarballs and run python setup.py install after unpacking, with
the venv activated.
Upon the official docs I thought Python 3.4 would install pip automatically, but it seems, it doesn't:
Changed in version 3.4: Installs pip by default, added the --without-pip and --copies options
EDIT: Somehow I managed to use a Python3.3.2 version also installed on that machine. With Python3.4, it works as expected.
I want to upgrade Django from 1.2.5 to 1.3. I uninstalled 1.2.5 version, by the Ubuntu Software Center, for future upgrading, but it still in dist-packages and it still imported in python shell. What should I do? Would it be normal if I would brutally deleted the folder and egg from dist-packages?
It runs on Ubuntu 10.04
I recommend using setup-tools. Then run
easy_install --upgrade django
It will remove current django path from PYTHON_PATH and will add it's own path. To get easy_install do:
apt-get install python-setuptools
For both actions sudo is needed.
Go to the /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages. Find django folder there and delete it. then download django 1.3 and run python setup.py install. This should do the trick.
Remove django version using pip:
pip uninstall django
And install the version you want, for example 1.5:
pip install django==1.5
