Issue 33287: "pip iinstall packageName.py" fails (original) (raw)

Hi all. I'm struggling with the installation of a pyton package under Ubuntu 16.4 and Python 7. I follow the statements of the pakage authors, but I obtaint the following errors (note that I have the same error for different packages installation attempt). Any suggestion is more than welcome.
