pip install on Windows: "no matching distribution found for mavsdk"

[SelimOzel]

Am I doing this right? Please see the attached image.

[JonasVautherin]

Nope, you're apparently doing it right, but pip decided that your system was not compatible. What system are you running on? Windows 10, 64 bits?

[SelimOzel]

Yes, that's the system! Thanks.

[JonasVautherin]

Ok, I need to have a look at that. I'll keep you posted ASAP!

[SelimOzel]

No worries! And thanks once more!

[julianoes]

I tried to reproduce this on Windows 10 64 bit with Python 3.7.4 and it worked successfully:

@SelimOzel: what's the output of pip3 --version and python3 --version?

[SelimOzel]

It should be pip 19.1.1 and python 3.7.2. I am not certain if all path variables are correct on the particular laptop I'm using. I haven't used python in a while with this laptop. I'll give this command another shot with the setup I got home.

[JonasVautherin]

But Python 3.6+ should be fine. Here somehow pip decides that your machine is not compatible, and I don't get why 🤔...

[SelimOzel]

Just to be clear. This is not a critical problem for me. I just wanted to give more data points to work with to whoever ends up solving it.

I tested following commands in the image on my home setup with a Windows 10, x64 PC. Still getting the same error.

I'm here for same Issue for raspberry pi 4(raspbian buster). I tried to download and install manually but no chance.

I tried to follow this instruction but it gives me error too:

Build and run from sources
Note: this is more involved and targetted to contributors.

Get the Python wrapper
Clone this repo and recursively update submodules:

git clone https://github.com/mavlink/MAVSDK-Python --recursive
cd MAVSDK-Python
Install prerequisites
First install the protoc plugin (protoc-gen-dcsdk):

cd proto/pb_plugins
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .
You can check that the plugin was installed with $ which protoc-gen-dcsdk, as it should now be in the PATH.

Then go back to the root of the repo and install the dependencies of the SDK:

cd ../..
pip install -r requirements.txt -r requirements-dev.txt
Generate wrapper
Run the following helper script. It will generate the Python wrappers for each plugin. If the submodules are not initialized already, the script will take care of it.

./other/tools/run_protoc.sh
Install the package locally
After generating the wrapper you can install a development (editable) version of the package using:

pip install -e .

On ubuntu bionic it was running well.

I'm here for same Issue for raspberry pi 4(raspbian buster). I tried to download and install manually but no chance.

That's normal, we don't distribute for arm (yet). We have linux_x86_64, windows 64 bits and macOS. Now I don't get why the pip of @SelimOzel doesn't detect it as windows-compatible.

@SelimOzel: Could you try to download the wheel here and install it manually?

pip install mavsdk-0.1.0-py3-none-win_amd64.whl

[SelimOzel]

My system type is x64-based PC and CPU is i7-7700 as written in System Information panel of Windows 10. I downloaded the .whl file in the link you provided into C:\Wheel and run the install command from there. Unfortunately it still is complaining about platform and support. :(

[canpinaremre]

Can't we use with raspberry pi?

[JonasVautherin]

Can't we use with raspberry pi?

You can, but you have to compile mavsdk_server manually, as we don't provide it with the pip package yet.

[JonasVautherin]

@SelimOzel can you try to see if a verbose call of pip gives useful info?

pip3 -vvv install mavsdk

[julianoes]

[v2h]

I'm having the same problem on both my personal laptop and work laptop (Windows 10 64 bit, python version 3.7.4). Here is the output for pip3 -vvv install mavsdk :

[JonasVautherin]

Thanks @v2h for the input!

It seems like it tries to install mavsdk-0.1.0-py3-none-macosx_10_9_x86_64.whl, which obviously doesn't match. Interestingly, it does not mention the other variants.

Would you mind trying to download the wheel directly and install it with the following command?

$ pip3 -vvv install mavsdk-0.1.0-py3-none-win_amd64.whl

[v2h]

@JonasVautherin here are the outputs from $ pip3 -vvv install mavsdk-0.1.0-py3-none-win_amd64.whl:

[JonasVautherin]

Should it have another name? Like win_x86-64 or win-arm64 or something like that?

Would you mind trying different solutions? Or maybe there is a list somewhere online (I'm on holiday, I don't have access to a computer right now 😊)

[v2h]

@JonasVautherin win_x86-64 didn't work either. Enjoy your holiday (: I'll try to figure it out and let you know.

[julianoes]

@v2h why are you using python37-32? This looks like it's the 32 bit version of Python.

[julianoes]

I can reproduce this with Python 3.7 32 bit:

[julianoes]

@v2h I think in the longer term we would like to support 32 bit as well but for now I suggest to install the Python 64 bit version to workaround this.

[v2h]

@julianoes @JonasVautherin ahhh silly me, I was messing around with Python 2 and 3, and then mistakenly installed the 32 bit version. Reinstalled Python 64 bit and everything works now. Thanks alot!!

[julianoes]

Yay, glad! I'll close this then.

[MaEtUgR]

I had the same problem, thanks to @JonasVautherin for hinting me towards the 32/64-Bit issue. I think the root cause of the problem is the python website https://www.python.org/downloads/ which offers a huge download Python for windows button that when pressed installs you the 32-Bit version (in 2019!). It also doesn't mention that it's 32-Bit neither on the button nor in the installer file name. It should offer also a 64-Bit button otherwise people including me are tempted to just press whatever seems to be default. Let's write the website admins.
EDIT: python/pythondotorg#1299 (comment)

[JonasVautherin]

Maybe we should also publish a 32 bits artifact for Windows? Does that make sense?

[julianoes]

Maybe we should also publish a 32 bits artifact for Windows? Does that make sense?

Yes, I think that will spare some troubles.

[rahulswimmer]

Apparently the package I was looking for was getting installed for a different pip url. Hence I pointed my pip command to that url inside pip.conf file and it solved my problem.

[julianoes]

@qsqqwqeqe please don't necrobump but create a new issue with proper log information.

[jagadeeshdevula]

Hi,
While installing the GitHub-dorks.py package with ( pip3 install github-dorks.py ), got some error like
python version : Python 3.8.5

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement github-dorks.py (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for github-dorks.py
Please help me to solve this issue.

Thank you.

Please don't necrobump.
