Unable to install in mac

Open asitav-sen opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Hi, Thanks for sharing your nice work. Could you please help me with installation in mac? The error says

    The package setup script has attempted to modify files on your system
    that are not within the EasyInstall build area, and has been aborted.
    
    This package cannot be safely installed by EasyInstall, and may not
    support alternate installation locations even if you run its setup
    script by hand.  Please inform the package's author and the EasyInstall
    maintainers to find out if a fix or workaround is available.

I ran

pip3 install "matrix-nio[e2e]"

Thanks!

Hey there, @asitav-sen

It seems you're using easy_install which has been deprecated

please reinstall pip using a supported method from

https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installation/#supported-methods And then try again
