You are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 18.0 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

I've done pip3 install google-cloud --upgrade...did and uninstall and reinstall, but still no go....

Answer 1

Just try pip install google and re-execute the python script Also do upgrade the pip

Answer 2

Looks like you want to use pubsub with python, according the documentation you should install the module with the following command:

pip install --upgrade google-cloud-pubsub

If this doesn't work you can update pip and pip3 with apt:

sudo apt install python3-pip python-pip
pip install --upgrade google-cloud-pubsub
