There is a version of pip installed for a version of python which isn't installed. That's definitely not useful, so it should be cleaned up. As to how to do that: Find out which package /usr/bin/pip belongs to and deinstall or upgrade this package. How to find that package is a Slackware question, not a Python question. And since Rich wrote that he's been comfortably using Slackware for 20 years, I'll trust that he knows how to do that and just needed a little nudge into the right direction. hp -- _ | Peter J.

I've used Slackware for 20 years; it's completely rationale and comfortable for me. :-) That being said, if you start from python source ... If worse came to worse, I'd reinstall the distro package.

I don't need it because I learned this morning that my Yamaha CM500 headset clearly heard the Zoom audio test tones and voices on a YouTube video. I'm testing the headset on a Zoom call this afternoon with a friend. Assuming it works with the meeting as it did on the Zoom test I'll use it for Zoom and Jitsi meetings and use the Marantz Pro mic and Panasonic headphones for recording web tutorials and podcasts.

If this is someone elses install I would be cautious in using any advice I am providing, as it would be better for someone with familiarity with how they want the device set up to address the issues (such as if they prefer using some sort of package scheme or if doing everything from source is ok). That being said, if you start from python source (as in overwriting what is currently there and doing a fresh reinstall), you can download Python3.9, then run ./configure make make install after doing that, verify (python may still link to something old, that may be ok in this case, but good to note) python --version python3 --version python3.9 --version pkg_resources is inside of setuptools so you would run python3.9 -m pip install setuptools (might already be there with the reinstall) after that run python3.9 then run import pkg_resources import setuptools to see if you get errors or successful imports if they import successfully, attempt to reinstall meson and ninja against your fresh python install python3.9 -m pip install meson python3.9 -m pip install ninja verify versions with meson -v ninja --version Then follow the instructions of the meson package from there (you mentioned some sort of pulseaudio-equalizer, depending on your desktop environment, you may run in to additional issues depending on how your slackware is setup). -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

On Sun, 16 Apr 2023, Thomas Passin wrote: Sorry, Rich, I've never dealt with this so someone else will have to give suggestions. Thomas, This is all new to me, too. I would try to see if there are any versions available. It could be that meson says it needs version x but only version y > x is available. Pip will quit but meson may very well work with the available version anyway. So I would try to install pkg_resources on its own, and then see if the meson build can succeed. No guarantees, but I've seen this work before. So python3.9 -m pip install --user pkg_resources Or, to see what versions if any are available: python3.9 -m pip install --user pkg_resources== # NO spaces allowed before the "==". Thank you. I'll give this a try. Regards, Rich -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
