Description Bogdan Artyushenko 2018-11-19 14:27:24 UTC

Hi,
I've recently  installed:
pkg install pip-3.6
on FreeBDS 12.0-BETA4
when I run it I got:
  pip-3.6
Traceback
File "usr/local/bin/pip-3.6, line 6 in <module>
  from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.pu" line 35, in <module>
   import plistlib
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/plitlib.py" line 65, in <module>
   from xml.parsers.expat import ParserCreate
ModuleNotFoundError: no module named xml

Thank you for your report Bogdan

xml is a Python standard library module provided by lang/python* packages. The error appears to indicate a corrupt or modified system Python installation or environment.

Can you please provide, as attachments:

- pkg version -v output
- details of your package configuration (pkg/FreeBSD.conf)
- A full/recursive list (ls -Rla) of the contents of /usr/local/lib/python3.6

I would also try, to refresh the installation:

1) pkg delete -f python36 py36-pip
2) pkg update -f
3) pkg install python36 py36-pip

Note also that using pip (as root) to install, update or manage packages in the *system* Python environment is unsupported, which is described in the pip pkg-message upon installation.

Is this still relevant?
