Pip Install python package: cannot find requirements.txt

I am trying to install the package gamry-parser (https://pypi.org/project/gamry-parser/).

However, the command window is unable to find the requirements.txt in the location it is looking for. I have tried to search the path it is searching in my computer, but it does not seem to exist(c:\users\name\appdata\local\temp\pip-install-rfy1sh\gamry-parser\setup.py). In addition, the requirements.txt does in fact exist, but not in this nonexistant path. I get the following error:

IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'requirements.txt'
ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: python setup.py egg_info Check the logs for full command output.

Thanks.

gamry-parser 0.4.1 provides a wheel for Python 3 and a source dist that will be used for Python 2.7. I tested them — the wheel installed with Python 3.7, no problem.

The problem is with Python 2.7 and the source distribution — the sdist lacks requirements.txt. To fix it they need to add file MANIFEST.in:

echo include requirements.txt > MANIFEST.in
git add MANIFEST.in
git commit -m "Add MANIFEST.in for sdist"

Please report the issue or send a pull request.
