Cannot install python3-setuptools

I am using python 3.4.3.

When I try to run this code on terminal (once I'm already inside the respective folder) 

pip3 install python3-setuptools

I get this error message:

Collecting python3-setuptools
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement python3 setuptools (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for python3-setuptools

Could anyone help me out on this?

You cannot install python3-setuptools with pip — there is no such pip-installable package: https://pypi.org/project/python3-setuptools/ — error 404. In python ecosystem the package is called simply setuptools.

python3-setuptools is the name of the package in Debian/Ubuntu package system:

https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=python3-setuptools&searchon=names&suite=stable&section=all

https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=python3-setuptools&searchon=names&suite=bionic&section=all

So either you install it with apt install python3-setuptools or pip3 install setuptools.
