I can't install pycortex.

[stratisg]

Hello,

When I run the command pip install -U pycortex I get the error error: could not create '/usr/share/pycortex': Permission denied. How can I overcome this issue so I can install pycortex?

It looks like you are using a system-wide python installation. In general it's recommended to use a virtual environment or a conda environment. In any case, I believe you can solve the problem either by using virtualenv/conda or by installing pycortex with the --user flag (pip install --user pycortex).
