I'm using a Mac, running Python 3.7.
Following the install instructions, using pip install scattertext, I get this error.

Error:

No metadata found in ./anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages
Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/lmcquillan/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pandas-0.25.1.dist-info/METADATA'

Not 100% sure why this would happen, but you might want to create a fresh virtual environment and install it there. It sounds like your pandas installation got corrupted somehow.

I tried to install Scattertext 0.0.2.55 in a fresh virtual environment and it worked fine. From another issue the requester filed (pandas-dev/pandas#28902), it appears this stems from a corrupted pandas installation.
