pip not installing all folders of a package


When doing pip3.12 install google and running import google I get the error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'google'.

When checking the libraries folder (/home/pi/.local/lib/python3.12/site-packages/) I can see that there is a folder named google-3.0.0.dist-info and another one named googlesearch but no folder named google.

I tried using venv and reinstalling the package multiple times with no luck.


Solution

  • I was installing the wrong library (I wanted google-api-core not googlesearch) as @Anya Shenanigans mentioned
