I have used this tutorial and others. I have already tried dozens of times and have spent almost a complete day but I could not succeed.

No matter what, I could not go beyond this: 

$ python
Python 2.7.5 (default, May 13 2016, 16:30:46) 
[GCC 4.9.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pyevolve
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named pyevolve
>>>

P.S. I don't know python. I just have installed python using instructions available online and have run the tests to make sure its installed.

I don't know much about pyevolve either. I just have to install it to make my experiment run. The tool in my experiment has python scripts which require pyevolve.

EDIT:

When I do: easy_install pyevolve

I get: 

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py:2512:  PEP440Warning: 'python-apt (0.9.3.11build1)' is being parsed as a legacy,  non PEP 440, version.

  • What exactly have you tried? Just easy_install? – malbarbo May 13 '16 at 20:52
  • `easy_install pyevolve`, `easy_install --upgrade pyevolve` and `easy_install /downloads/downloaded_package.egg` – tod May 13 '16 at 20:54
  • What are the result? A error? – malbarbo May 13 '16 at 20:55
  • @malbarbo updated the question – tod May 13 '16 at 20:58
  • It's a little interesting that you felt the need to install Python yourself. Linux generally comes with Python preinstalled. And if you installed it yourself, it's a little odd that you didn't install the latest Python 2.7.x (which is currently 2.7.11). Though I'm not a Linux user myself, so I can't really say; maybe 2.7.5 is normal for your Linux distribution. – John Y May 13 '16 at 21:17
  • @JohnY I am sorry. I could not understand what point are you trying to make? – tod May 13 '16 at 21:23
  • No particular point, really. Just expressing my surprise. I would have thought your Linux already had Python, so you shouldn't have to install it yourself. – John Y May 13 '16 at 21:46
  • @JohnY I was not sure about it, but yes you are right. However, my need is a different version than the one already exists. A wild guess of mine could also be that this is due to these multiple python installations -- though no idea how to fix. Nonetheless, I don't have any idea about python... – tod May 13 '16 at 21:51
