Description
pip has dropped support for installing .egg
-based packages when it stopped invoking setup.py install
.
At some point pip will abandon support for detecting and uninstalling legacy .egg
-based packages too.
If you reach this issue from the pip deprecation message, it is likely that your Python environment has packages that have been installed with setup.py install
, easy_install
, or an older pip version.
The recommended action is to uninstall the package and reinstall it with a recent pip.
