Ubuntu 16.04 deployment_tools/demo verification script /usr/bin/pip3 error

514 Views

I installed R4 openVINO in November 2018 and either didn't have this issue, or the R4 install instructions (pre Dec 19) didn't have me run the same demo_squeezenet_download_convert_run.sh script as the initial verification.

I installed R5 yesterday and and the verification script fails with:

File "/usr/bin/pip3"
from pip import main
ImportError: cannot import name 'main"

I went back to the system I'd installed R4 on to see what is going on and it failed this time. I assume its something with the virtual environment setup or some recent Ubuntu updates.

Short answer, I got the verification script to run by changing line 128 in the R4 demo_squeezenet_download_convert_run.sh

to be pip_binary=pip instead of pip_binary=pip3

I assume the same change will verify my R5 installation, I'll follow up if it does not.

I haven't found much on updating R4 to R5 yet.
