I don’t know how this happened but I can’t do anything with pip, even when I do a pip3 --version I get these errors also, can not use pip in any way.

things I did before it got broken:

  1. I tried to get some packages from GitHub
  2. couldn’t run packages so tried to install requirements.
  3. then I got these errors, I looked up StackOverflow and I thought I found a solution. I removed the OpenSSL package and tried installing it fresh but got the same errors again.
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/OpenSSL
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/pyOpenSSL-22.1.0.dist-info/

I should also add I’m running an ARM version of ubuntu on a virtual machine inside MacOS

Error I’m getting:

  1. rm -rf /home/randle/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/OpenSSL*

    rm -rf /home/randle/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pyOpenSSL*

  2. You seem to have a mismatch between installed versions of pyopenssl and cryptography. I would remove the former, by doing pip uninstall pyopenssl – if that doesn’t work, try removing it manually by doing rm -rf /home/bourbon/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/OpenSSL.
