Hi!
I have been trying to install the a local version of the NRP on Ubuntu 16.04 system following the instructions on bitbucket.
During the build process of the NRP pip is upgraded in virtual environments for various steps:
- ExperimentControl
- BrainSimulation
- VirtualCoach
- CLE
- ExDBackend
for each of which it will crash with the message
from pip import main
ImportError: cannot import name 'main'
This seems to be because after upgrading pip to v10 from pip import main
is broken as the package pip.main
has been moved to pip._internal.main
.
I am not sure how to proceed. In a previous thread it was suggested to downgrade pip (to version 1.4.1).
Would that be recommended in this case as well and if so, still to version 1.4.1?
I assume that would involve changing
$(PIP) install $(PIPPROXY) --upgrade $(PYTHON_PIP_VERSION)
to
$(PIP) install $(PIPPROXY) --upgrade pip=1.4.1
in every user_makefile?
Best
Mario
