Try running: pip2 install web3==2.7.0 and then pip2 install oyente

[liyue-cs]

It worked,thanks @luongnt95

@luongnt95
Following error when trying the solution :-
eth-hash requires Python '>=3.5, <4' but the running Python is 2.7.15

[unboxedtype]

I had the same problem as mentioned by gulshanvasnani.
So I changed command slightly:
pip2 install web3==2.7.0 eth-hash==0.1.0
There were several versions of eth-hashed released since 0.1.0; not sure how bad this solution is.

[dmdque]

This should be added to the readme.

When trying the solution of #301 (comment), I now get a further error:

$ pip2 install web3==2.7.0 eth-hash==0.1.0
[...]
Collecting eth-typing<2.0.0,>=1.3.0 (from eth-utils<2,>=1.0.2->rlp>=0.4.6->web3==2.7.0)
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement eth-typing<2.0.0,>=1.3.0 (from eth-utils<2,>=1.0.2->rlp>=0.4.6->web3==2.7.0) (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for eth-typing<2.0.0,>=1.3.0 (from eth-utils<2,>=1.0.2->rlp>=0.4.6->web3==2.7.0)

Solution:

Additionally specify the version of eth-utils to be 1.0.1.

 pip2 install web3==2.7.0 eth-hash==0.1.0 eth-utils==1.0.1 oyente

Note: I chose version number 1.0.1 because it was released roughly at the same time as version 0.1.0 of eth-hash, and I guessed that those versions are probably compatible.
