I recently switched to a Mac machine and having trouble to install the library here.
- MacBook Air
- macOS Big Sur
- M1 Chip
Maybe anyone can help out?
running install
error: can't create or remove files in install directory
The following error occurred while trying to add or remove files in the
installation directory:
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Library/Python/3.8/site-packages/test-easy-install-41837.write-test'
The installation directory you specified (via --install-dir, --prefix, or
the distutils default setting) was:
/Library/Python/3.8/site-packages/
This directory does not currently exist. Please create it and try again, or
choose a different installation directory (using the -d or --install-dir
option).```
