ImportError: No module named req

When trying to run Jasper on my Raspberry Pi B+ I get the following error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./jasper.py", line 12, in <module>
    from client import tts
  File "/home/pi/jasper/client/tts.py", line 41, in <module>
    import diagnose
 File "/home/pi/jasper/client/diagnose.py", line 9, in <module>
    import pip.req
ImportError: No module named req

I’m tried reinstalling pip but that doesn’t fix it. Any help?

change your pip version : sudo python -m pip install --upgrade pip==9.0.3

just… workaround 😃

Do this to get working like a charm!

1. create a directory pip/
2. add an empty file pip/init.py
3. add a file pip/req.py
4. put the code above into pip/req.py:

# package pip.req.py
def parse_requirements(filename):
    """ load requirements from a pip requirements file """
    lineiter = (line.strip() for line in open(filename))
    return [line for line in lineiter if line and not line.startswith("#")]
