@YP-Ye What is your pip --version?

My pip version is 10.0.1. Do I need to upgrade pip?

[tkf]

Probably not. I was interested in the full output of pip --version which includes the Python version.

Are you using Python 2?

Probably not. I was interested in the full output of pip --version which includes the Python version.

Are you using Python 2?

I use python 3.6. The newest pip does not work.
C:\Windows\System32>pip --version
pip 18.1 from c:\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.6)

I wrote a (possible) fix #219. What happens if you try the following?

pip install --user 'https://github.com/tkf/pyjulia/archive/fix-setup-py.zip#egg=julia'

BTW, please quote code blocks https://discourse.julialang.org/t/psa-how-to-quote-code-with-backticks/7530

Thank you! I successfully installed this version and it really works. I will try to use code block.

Glad that it works!
