Before posting anything I had already tried this For Redhat 7: sudo pip install pyserial pyusb
but CentOS 7.9 has no program pip !! so I had tried this: [root@CRMG-Fremont weewx]# yum install pip Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirror.den01.meanservers.net * epel: mirror.oss.ou.edu * extras: mirror.den01.meanservers.net * updates: mirror.dal10.us.leaseweb.net No package pip available. Error: Nothing to do So I assumed this was not a step for CentOS.... Obviously wrong. What would the corresponding CentOS 7 program be for pip? thanks rich On Sun, Nov 22, 2020 at 2:56 PM bell...@gmail.com <bellri...@gmail.com> wrote: > > At the very top of that page I see this.... > Install pre-requisites > For Redhat 8: > sudo yum install epel-release > sudo yum install python3-cheetah > For Redhat 7: > sudo pip install pyserial pyusb > > On Sunday, 22 November 2020 at 16:51:46 UTC-5 paint...@gmail.com wrote: > >> thanks Vince! >> >> But I'm really confused...
