Unable to install ANY package from pip; wheel failed to build


Whenever I try to install any package from pip(pip install --upgrade bottle-websocketfor example)

I always get the same error, wheel fails to build, I have already tried to upgrade setuptools and wheel and pip, everything, but still I get the same error.


 pip install --upgrade bottle-websocket

Solution

  • So I made it work out, the answer was simple, I had to do it with root privileges, I typed sudo -i and typed in the installation command and it worked!
