Estoy tratando de instalar el paquete python rpy2 con pip install en Ubuntu 16.04:

pip install rpy2==2.2.7

pero recibe un mensaje de error (vea el resultado completo a continuación):

Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-EuOI6K/unroll/

Lo mismo sucede con otros paquetes, como pip install unroll , o usando pip2 . Pensé que esta publicación era el mismo problema, pero allí se resuelve usando Sudo.

Soluciones probadas

Probé soluciones en esta publicación, como:pip install --upgrade setuptools , (sudo) easy_install -U setuptools o sudo apt-get install python-setuptools , pero fue en vano.

información de python/pip

Alguien sugirió que podría tener una instalación extraña de python/pip, aquí hay algunas informaciones:

sudo which python pip pip2 | xargs -rd 'n' readlink -f 
/usr/bin/python2.7   
/usr/local/bin/pip  
/usr/local/bin/pip2  

sudo python --version   
Python 2.7.12  

sudo pip --version  
pip 9.0.1 from /home/matifou/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages (python 2.7)  
/usr/bin/pip2 --version  
pip 8.1.1 from /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (python 2.7)

ls -l $(which pip); dpkg -S /usr/bin/pip
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 204 Nov  8 16:24 /usr/local/bin/pip

Actualizar setuptools usando pip

La versión de python-setuptools en el repositorio de paquetes de Ubuntu 16.04 LTS está desactualizado/sin mantenimiento. Actualízalo con pip en lugar de confiar en el administrador de paquetes:

$ sudo pip install --upgrade setuptools
