[issue34835] Multiprocessing module update fails with pip3

[Cheryl Sabella]

Cheryl Sabella  added the comment:

As Steven said,
> In Python 2.6+ multiprocessing is a std lib module

This means that multiprocessing will be current with the version of Python 3 
that you have installed.  If you're currently on 3.7.0, when 3.7.1 is released 
and you install it, you will get all the updates to multiprocessing (if there 
were any).

No, you are right, thank you. But just to be clear, how do I update 
multiprocessing in python3 then?

[issue34835] Multiprocessing module update fails with pip3

[Steven D'Aprano]

Steven D'Aprano  added the comment:

``pip3 search multiprocessing`` says:

multiprocessing (2.6.2.1)- Backport of the multiprocessing package 
to Python 2.4 and 2.5

so you are trying to install a Python 2.4/2.5 package into Python 3.7, which 
naturally cannot work.

In Python 2.6+ multiprocessing is a std lib module and you don't need to use 
pip to install it. I'm not sure if pip works with Python 2.4 or 2.5, but if it 
does, you'll need to use the 2.4/2.5 version of pip to do the update, not pip3.

I'm going to close this as not a bug. If you disagree, please give reasons why 
you think it should be reopened.

New submission from Dr_Zaszus :

pip3 install --upgrade multiprocessing 

fails with a python2 error in 'setup.py': 
   print 'Macros:'
 ^
   SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'. Did you mean 
print('Macros:')?
