Error with igraph library - deprecated library

I have changed my computer to a Linux Mint x64 OS and I have throubles with a python library, igraph library, when i try to execute and old program I made.

DeprecationWarning: To avoid name collision with the igraph project, this visualization library has been renamed to 'jgraph'. Please upgrade when convenient.

I can't find information about how to change my code for the new library. On a Win8 PC, via pip installation, it works perfectly but I can't make it working on my PC with Mint. The normal installation made with

sudo apt-get install python-igraph

install 0.6.5-1 library version. I've also tried installing it with pip but it gives me same error but installed version is igraph-0.1.11-py2.py3-none-any.whl

I'm using only Graph class

from igraph import Graph

What have I to do to change my code to make it working with the new library? Am I missing something?

edit: it's working on my laptop with Mint x86 OS, library version 0.6.5-1

To avoid confusion, I'd like to point out that the other answers are now outdated, and the question is obsolete.

Since November 2021, the Python interface of the igraph network analysis library can be installed using

pip install igraph

Using pip install python-igraph is now deprecated.

Update: This information is outdated since November 2021. The correct way to install igraph's Python interface is now pip install igraph.

I think you have installed the wrong igraph libray.

This igraph(0.1.11) is the one you installed, while this igraph(0.7.1) is the one you need (and the well-known iGraph).

  • Using pip (once you've installed it), Just do:

    sudo pip uninstall igraph

  • Then install the python-igraph-0.7.1 package, using either pip or apt-get as mentionned in comments below:

    sudo pip install python-igraph

Hope it works.

sudo -H pip uninstall igraph

then: 

sudo pip install python-igraph

worked for me.
