I currently have python 2.6 (default) installed on my VPS (Plesk). I have also installed python 2.7 which is the version I want to use 99% of the time. I need to install python-dev on python 2.7 but running
sudo apt-get install python-dev
installs under python 2.6
How do I install python-dev for python 2.7?
Just try sudo apt-get install python2.7-dev.
Before doing this, don't miss to get your apt repository fresh! sudo apt-get update
If you're going to use different python envrionment, I strongly recommend you to use virtualenv.

I have a fresh new minimal installation of CentOS 6.8 where I'm trying to have Python 2.7 with its tools.
First, I started with:
yum -y update
yum groupinstall -y development
yum install -y zlib-dev openssl-devel sqlite-devel bzip2-devel
Then I downloaded the Python 2.7.13 package and installed it normally with:
./configure
make
make altinstall
But then, when trying to install setuptools with:
wget http://url.to.setup.tools.package
tar xf file
cd folder
python2.7 setup.py install
it says that the six package is missing.
If I want to install the six package, it says that the packaging package is missing. If I want to install the packaging package, it says that the pyparsing package is missing. If I want to install the pyparsing package, it says that the setuptools package is missing.
How can this happen? Is now Python 2.7.13 installing itself without anything?
Is there any other way to install Python 2.7 separately from the original Python 2.6 that CentOS 6.8 has?
Thank you very much.
You could manually install EPEL repo and then IUS repo:
wget https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-6.noarch.rpm
rpm -Uhv epel-release-latest-6.noarch.rpm
wget https://centos6.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm
rpm -Uhv ius-release.rpm
Then you can install Python-2.7 like this:
yum -y install python27 python27-devel python27-pip python27-setuptools python27-virtualenv --enablerepo=ius
Then whatever python script you might have that you want to use Python 2.7.x instead of 2.6 (which is default installed on CentOS 6.x) you have to edit that script and do a simple replace (replace python with python2.7) and you're good to go!
I am trying to install using
sudo apt-get install babel.messages
but getting error:
ImportError: No module named babel.messages
Please let me know how to install in Ubuntu 16.04
Try that with using this command:
# pip install babel
It will work well
For Ubuntu versions older than 17.04, you can install python-babel from the Ubuntu repositories by running the following command in terminal:
sudo apt-get install python-babel
For Ubuntu versions from 17.04 and also on older versions you can install it via pip, the Python package manager as:
pip install babel
If you don't have pip installed yet, you can install it as:
sudo apt install python-pip
I am using macOS Sierra 10.12 and after I upgraded my OS I can no longer install packages for python 3 using pip. Before I used to use pip for python2 and pip3 for python 3 as I have both versions of Python. But now I can no longer use pip to install libraries for python2.
Can anyone help me how can I change my default pip installer to python2? So that I can just use pip install in order to install for python 2.
For your information - when I only type python on terminal it says my default is python 2.7.
on running
which pip
I got /usr/local/bin/pip
Which meant it was pointing to pip2
To change default pip to pip3, run
sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/pip3 /usr/local/bin/pip
install pip for Python2.7 with easy_install:
sudo easy_install-2.7 pip
now you can use pip for the same specific version of Python:
sudo pip2.7 install BeautifulSoup
I'm fairly new to python. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 and have both python 2.7.6 and python 3.4.0 installed. I was trying to install BeautifulSoup but couldn't because I get an error saying
The program 'pip' is currently not installed.
I found that it comes bundles with python 3.4. I tried to install pip using sudo easy_install pip as mentioned in another question on stackoverflow. But this gives an error sudo: easy_install: command not found.
What is the problem?
pip appears to have turned into python -m pip (in your case, python3 -m pip, as Ubuntu's keeping the 2.x line available as python) in Python 3.4.
easy_install for Python 2.7 comes as part of the python-setuptools package. Once installed, running easy_install pip would install pip for your Python 2.7 installation's use.
How aboutapt-get install python-pip? At least, Debian official repository has python-pip even from wheezy.
Unfortunately, effective as of April 2018, python-setuptools no longer ships with easy_install, as per Matthias's update:
https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/18.04/ubuntu-main-i386/python-setuptools_39.0.1-2_all.deb.html
However, you can still compile from the source code yourself, and it does work. I just tried it with sudo easy_install shodan, and it ran successfully.
git clone https://github.com/pypa/setuptools.git
cd ./setuptools
python3 bootstrap.py
sudo python3 setup.py install
Hope this helps.
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
But I get this error
Downloading/unpacking 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
