Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement evaluate

Question

Here they say the Evaluate library has to be installed in a virtual environment. So I follow this guide and I create and activate a virtual environment doing:

python3 -m venv env

and

source env/bin/activate

Then when I try to install the evaluate package

python3 -m pip install requests

This happens:

(env) bscuser@localhost:~> python3 -m pip install evaluate
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement evaluate (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for evaluate

How can I solve this?

I'm using OpenSuse Leap 15.3 and my Python version is 3.6.15.

Answer 1

In my case I got this error even for python 3.7:

user@dot:~/PycharmProjects/tsg$ python --version
Python 3.7.16
user@dot:~/PycharmProjects/tsg$ pip3 install evaluate
Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement evaluate
ERROR: No matching distribution found for evaluate
WARNING: You are using pip version 21.0.1; however, version 21.3.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the '/usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.

... but after upgrading pip It was resolved:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip

Answer 2

Look at the left side-bar on PyPi package page for evaluate. Near the bottom is the "Programming Language" section. It lists availability for Python version 3.7 to 3.10.

You will need to create a new environment with one of those versions of Python.
