Problem with pip install

[ProfLeao]

When I try to install the package with pip in SO Windows, I get the followingoutput.

Can anyone help me?

@BAFurtado , could you please have a quick look at this?

[BAFurtado]

There's probably a version incompatibility. I would try a new env from scratch including at once all necessary packages.

Something like:

conda create -n my_new_env geobr ... geoandas... shapely ... whatever
Do not state specific version numbers and let conda decide on the latest possible.

Or the equivalent in pip.

Specifically, shapely, gdal and geopandas are tricky to install. So the best way is to do it together using conda
Other pythonists nowadays use poetryand other env managers. Conda has worked fine for me.

The error you're encountering seems to be related to a compatibility or dependency issue.
I just installed geobr without any problem. You might want to try creating a new environment to test it. This approach often resolves conflicts and issues related to specific package installations.

[ProfLeao]

I tried it a few times, but the problem still persists in Win11.

[Lucas-Pavesys]

This seems to be an issue in your pip version.
Due to the removal of the long-deprecated pkgutil.ImpImporter class, the pip command may not work for Python 3.12 or newer versions.

To fix this issue you can follow this steps:

1. Download the package https://pypi.org/project/geobr/#files;
2. Unzip it;
3. cd into the package directory;
4. type python setup.py install for windows or sudo python setup.py install for ubuntu;
   note: you may need administrator privileges for the 4th step

Please try this solution and tell me how it goes : )

I just updated the package dependencies (PR #341).

All issues related to dependencies and installation should be solved with it.

Try pip install geobr -U to try the new version and let me know how it goes.

I have the same problem when installing on mac.
AttributeError: module 'pkgutil' does not have attribute 'ImpImporter'.

I have already created a new venv and also tried to do as suggested by Lucas-Pavesys, both without success.

Any suggestions on what I can do?

Hello, I managed to solve it.
Apparently everything is working fine here.
I installed geopanda with python 3.9.19 in a new env. And when I tried to install geobr, pip solved it without any problems. Maybe it's the version of python 3.12 that is causing incompatibility.
If it works, I'll leave the commands I used.

conda create -n geo_env
conda activate geo_env
conda config --env --add channels conda-forge
conda config --env --set channel_priority strict
conda install python=3.9.19 geopandas
pip install geobr
