Unable to install anything using pip after upgrade to 20.0 #7620

HenrikOssipoff · 2020-01-21T11:56:00Z

Environment

pip version: 20.0
Python version: 3.6.8
OS: Ubuntu 14.04.6 (Don't judge)

Description

During our build process, we automatically upgrade to the newest version on pip. After upgrading to 20.0 (using pip install -U pip setuptools), we are unable to install any packages.

Output

honnix · 2020-01-21T12:00:46Z

Same here #7619 (comment)

Seems like unclean dist.

akaihola · 2020-01-21T12:00:51Z

Exactly the same with Python 3.7.5 on Fedora 29. The same happens both in virtualenvs and with --user. Also, doesn't matter if I run pip3.7 or python3.7 -m pip.

And as @ntoll suggests below, kudos for everyone working to fix this unfortunate glitch! Nice to see only neutral and supportive comments here. Open Source community at its best.

Exact same issue. Python 3.7.6, system: Mac OS Catalina

jamescooke · 2020-01-21T12:03:41Z

Same issue on Python 3.7.3 which is the Ubuntu 19.04 default.

ntoll · 2020-01-21T12:05:47Z

It's worth mentioning that mistakes, problems and unforeseen mishaps happen to all projects, no matter how much you plan and try to mitigate such events.

Spare a thought and supportive comments for the volunteer Pythonistas looking into this and fixing it for all our benefit.

honnix · 2020-01-21T12:09:07Z

Note a maintainer of pip, but I guess we have two options to move forward: 1) cut off a clean dist and bump the version; 2) at least pull off 20 from pypi (might be too late already).

xdralex · 2020-01-21T12:09:49Z

In the meanwhile this can be helpful if you use virtualenv:

virtualenv venv --no-pip
source venv/bin/activate
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
python get-pip.py pip==19.3.1

Aidenir · 2020-01-21T12:10:01Z

Just wanted to chime in that our build system went down with this too. Luckily its not critical, and I agree with @ntoll that sometimes things goes south, and I'm sure you're doing all you can to fix this.

sbidoul · 2020-01-21T12:10:15Z

@pradyunsg I confirm the issue. I suggest pulling it from PyPI.

jamescooke · 2020-01-21T12:10:55Z

@xdralex Yes 👍 I was just typing something similar.

Plus, if you've got a usable pip in your global env, then virtualenv venv --no-download will use that one instead of downloading the broken version.

Only for completeness: Windows is also affected. Win10 + Python 3.7.4 here (WinPython):

Seemingly affects any pip or python -m pip commands after installing 20.0. So, I'm also unable to revert to 19.3.

edit: This workaround helped.

jamescooke · 2020-01-21T12:15:23Z

For those people here with broken build processes because they do something similar to OP's pip install -U pip setuptools - remember you can tweak this to ban or constrain any particular version.

Both of these seem to work OK for me locally:

$ pip install -U "pip<20" setuptools
$ pip install -U "pip!=20.0" setuptools

pip will warn you about not being on the latest version, but won't install v20.0.

honnix · 2020-01-21T12:15:28Z

@james-gonzalez Not sure cutting off a new release is part of CI.

Reading https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/development/release-process/#creating-a-new-release, maybe after checking out master a git clean should be applied.

Prior99 · 2020-01-21T12:15:44Z

I have the exact same issue in a clean docker container running latest Ubuntu as well as an up-to-date Arch Linux.

cptx032 · 2020-01-21T12:16:20Z

I tried to download and run get-pip in a new virtualenv but it not works still :/
Ive noted that in pip/_internal/distributions/ folder have a python file called source.py and a folder called source. Just for now I manually removed the folder and pip is running again

arossert · 2020-01-21T12:16:27Z

A workaround to get pip working again is getting the get-pip.py script and running:
python get-pip.py pip==19.3.1
This will revert pip to the previous version

kushaldas · 2020-01-21T12:17:13Z

Do you not listen to your own CI tests?

Always remember that the maintainers are also humans, and programming mistakes are actually common among this species. We should be providing any support they or the community need than blaming people.

Upgrading pip unnecessarily can be disruptive, e.g. when pip 20 breaks [1]. This makes it more predictable, and a bit faster also. 1: pypa/pip#7620

jmd-dk · 2020-02-11T17:10:26Z

It might be the same problem as here. Try using

pip install --no-use-pep517 <package>

imomaliev · 2020-02-11T17:16:38Z

Probably related pypa/pipenv#4128. Another fix I found working for me is

pip install -U pipenv virtualenv
virtualenv .venv --seeder pip
PIPENV_VENV_IN_PROJECT=1 pipenv install

karolyi · 2020-02-23T21:11:41Z

@jeffself same situation here.

#5599 (comment) solves the problem (as indicated by the pip message).

marturojt · 2020-03-24T20:36:26Z

A workaround to get pip working again is getting the get-pip.py script and running:

Thanks bro... this workaround saves my archlinux distro =)

adamkeinan · 2020-04-11T20:03:13Z

I would suggest a common workground that save lots of Time and Pain:
Open the Setup.cfg and the Pip module and validate your pip version,module name+version etc... many times after upgrade/downgrade the file status doesn't change, so as the Requirements which lead to conflicts.

pradyunsg · 2020-04-28T18:11:12Z

Now that PyPI has support for yanked releases, I've gone ahead and marked pip 20.0 as "yanked". pip > 19.2 would not install it by default and would print a warning, when installing it via pip install pip==20:

WARNING: The candidate selected for download or install is a yanked version: 'pip' candidate (version 20.0 at https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/60/65/16487a7c4e0f95bb3fc89c2e377be331fd496b7a9b08fd3077de7f3ae2cf/pip-20.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl#sha256=eea07b449d969dbc8c062c157852cf8ed2ad1b8b5ac965a6b819e62929e41703 (from https://pypi.org/simple/pip/) (requires-python:>=2.7,!=3.0.*,!=3.1.*,!=3.2.*,!=3.3.*,!=3.4.*))

Here is the screenshot of the error i have been facing , please help me sort out this error.
Thanking you in Advance

@AvAkanksh, using Google I found these probably much better places to look for hints to solve your specific issue:

I am new and just installed Python3.7.4 on Windows 10 and tried to check pip -v in cmd but got this error. OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor[1] on Stack Overflow

Hi, I'm trying to install 'Pillow' in Python but I have face this issue. Please help me [closed] on Stack Overflow – this hidden question has an answer with specific instructions for Windows
OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor while using pip command in python on superuser
OSError [Errno 9] bad file descriptor on superuser

If you find a solution, a most helpful thing to do would be to link to it in comments of all the above pages.

Good luck, hope you find the solution!

These answers are outdated or otherwise wordy and difficult.

The following steps worked for me

If you've got Python 3.4+ or 2.7.9+, it will be installed by default on Windows. Otherwise, in short:

1, Download the pip installer: https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py

2, If paranoid, inspect file to confirm it isn't malicious (must b64 decode).

3, Open a console in the download folder as Admin and run get-pip.py.python get-pip.py .

The new binaries pip.exe (and the deprecated easy_install.exe) will be found in the "%ProgramFiles%\PythonXX\Scripts" folder (or similar), which is often not in your PATH variable. I recommend adding it.

py3.4+ should use the following method:

Upgrading pip unnecessarily can be disruptive, e.g. when pip 20 breaks [1]. This makes it more predictable, and a bit faster also. 1: pypa/pip#7620
