I've Python 3 running in a linux server. I need to install some libraries (obviously) so I'm trying :
pip3 install numpy
Which, is resulting in the following error:

UPDATE:
I tried ping google.com and got the error:
ping: google.com: Name or service not known
But when I tried ping 8.8.8.8, I got:

A problem with DNS maybe? What should I do?
All I had to do was add nameserver 8.8.8.8 to the /etc/resolv.conf file. 8.8.8.8 is Google's public free DNS server's IP. So, since a system must know the IP address of a domain name, we have to give it a way to do just that. A public DNS server provides this binding of a domain name to the IP address.
