  ERROR: Failed building wheel for ujson
Failed to build ujson
ERROR: Could not build wheels for ujson, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

I’m using an iPad Air 5, my so version is 15.6.q and I’m using a-shell as my console to install that module

Answer 1

the problem is not related to pip. its more likely related to deprecated code tho... what python version are you using? i could install ujson 5.8.0 succesfully with python 3.10.6 and pip version 23.2.1

try:

    python -m pip install --upgrade pip

and then:

    pip install ujson == 5.8.0

that worked for me😀
