I am trying to install the pyseer package with pip/pip3 as per the pyseer documentation. However, I get an Error saying :

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pyseer (fron versions: none) ERROR: No matching distribution found for pyseer.

Usually pip and pip3 installation has worked well on my system, I am unable to figure out the issue here.

Please help.

Thank you

Do you have your python installed via anaconda? I know it's kind of a pain to re-install but I finally just caved in and did last night and it really is the best way to go for installing Python packages. I just used it to try and install pyseer and it took some time (~5 minutes+), but it worked very well and installed a bunch of useful dependencies which I would have needed to install at some points inevitably anyways:

Make sure you have bioconda added to your conda config ( conda config --add channels bioconda ), too (same for conda-forge ); but I think these will be by default. Running the conda config command given above in parentheses will at least move bioconda to the top of conda's list of repos it scans which might speed up download of packages if you're mainly installing bioinformatics stuff, nonetheless.

Of course only 3.8 is the latest Python available through anaconda. You can still have Py 10 installed though, I do, for when I want to use any of the new stuff added since 3.8. (I just have to type python3.10 )

There is no pyseer on neither PyPI (where pip looks for packages by default) or TestPyPI (an instance of PyPI for testing). The PySeer README suggests two ways to install the package.

One of them is Conda:

conda install pyseer

However, you will have to install Conda, which can be a bit hard.

And the other one is pip. To use pip, you have to download (manually) from here (or clone with Git), then go to that directory on your terminal and run:

pip3 install .

(Even when the docs recommend pip, pip3 should not have problems to install this).
