Pip: six issue installing jupyter

Created on 26 Apr 2018  路  6Comments  路  Source: pypa/pip

  • Pip version: 10.0.1
  • Python version: 2.7
  • Operating system: macOS Sierra

Description:

Cannot uninstall 'six'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial uninstall.

What I've run:

sudo pip install jupyter

Same issue for me.

This is a duplicate of #4805.

If this is your personal development machine, I suggest you do a separate installation of Python (and not fiddle with the system Python installation).

I personally did brew install python and then brew link python, that's enough for my setup needs. :)

Feel free to close this issue if that resolves your concern/issue.
