Installation of packages using pip on macOS Sierra

Question

I am trying to install certain packages like pyautogui,etc. on my macOS Sierra. But it is throwing out some error.

$ sudo pip3 install pyobjc-core

The error is

Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: unable to load the file system codec
LookupError: no codec search functions registered: can't find encoding

Current thread 0x00007fffb7f853c0 (most recent call first):
Abort trap: 6

Can someone help me with this.

Answer 1

Perhaps something wrong with your Python installation. Anaconda have better package manager than pre-install Python. I suggest you install Anaconda (download here). Choose Anaconda2 (use Python 2 for less trouble)

Then try again with pip

pip install pyobjc-core
