This is the message I get after I type the command "pip install turicreate".

I am using ubuntu 20.4 and have python 3.8.2 installed on my system

回答1:

Turicreate doesn't support Python 3.8 yet. You have to use an earlier python version (e.g 3.7) to get turicreate working.

回答2:

You can create a virtual envirnment with any of the supported versions and then install turicreate. It works fine on Ubuntu 20.04 and Ubuntu 16.04 and is a good alternative for using turicreate as long as python3.8 support is not added.

Install any of the supported python versions and note its installation path (the installation folder is usually /usr/bin/ but it may vary). Install virtualenv with pip install virtualenv. Navigate to your project and then create the virtual environment inside the project folder with virtualenv -p /path/to/python/installation venv.

I created it with python3.6, so for me it was virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3.6 venv. Then activate the new virtual environment by typing in source venv/bin/activate. Check the python version with python --version.

Then proceed to install turicreate.

After you are done with your work, deactivate the virtual environment with the deactivate command
