Hello all,

Long time no post. I am working on a small home project and have a Macbook 
to go with it now instead of a PC. 

*NOTE:*
Now this issue I realised this morning can be avoided if I just straight 
git clone my repo into my viertual env but I would like to know why this 
happens in case I do put the library on PyPI one day.

*ISSUE:*
I installed Python3 via homebrew as 2.7 becomes deprecated at the end of 
this year I thought I might as well make the shift over. *(Is it necessary 
to run on Python3 or is sticking with 2.7 ok? Am just wondering)*

So I went into Pycharm and set myself up a new project with a venv and 
tried to run the following:

*pip3 install 
git+https://github.com/ben-hearn-sb/collection_cleanup.git#egg=collection_cleanup
 
<https://github.com/ben-hearn-sb/collection_cleanup.git#egg=collection_cleanup>*

Instead of an src folder being created and my git repo being cloned to it, 
I get the following error instead:

*Collecting collection_cleanup from 
git+https://github.com/ben-hearn-sb/collection_cleanup.git#egg=collection_cleanup
 
<https://github.com/ben-hearn-sb/collection_cleanup.git#egg=collection_cleanup>*

*    error: package directory 'distutils' does not exist*
    
*    ----------------------------------------*
*Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in 
/private/var/folders/wq/h99zwqzd067fmnyqktf9q0dh0000gn/T/pip-install-uwdlmrmv/collection-cleanup/*

I was looking around online for the solution to why distutils is missing 
this but could not find it at all. Does anyone know what might be happening?

Cheers,

Ben
