如何检查distutils是否已正确安装和使用？

Question

I am using NeuroNER

Unfortunately,I have problem to run python main.py NeuroNER version: 1.0-dev

TensorFlow version: 1.10.0
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 250, in <module>
    main()
  File "main.py", line 245, in main
    nn = NeuroNER(**arguments)
  File "/home/milenko/NeuroNER-master/src/neuroner.py", line 256, in __init__
    parameters, conf_parameters = self._load_parameters(arguments['parameters_filepath'], arguments=arguments)
  File "/home/milenko/NeuroNER-master/src/neuroner.py", line 95, in _load_parameters
    nested_parameters = utils.convert_configparser_to_dictionary(conf_parameters)
NameError: name 'utils' is not defined

AFter reading github issue I changed neuroner.py line to

import distutils.util

but it does not help. If I go for

sudo apt-get install python3-distutils
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
python3-distutils is already the newest version (3.6.5-3).

How to ckeck distutils package?

If I go for
apt-cache show distutils
N: Unable to locate package distutils
E: No packages found

But

apt-cache show python3-distutils
Package: python3-distutils
Architecture: all
Version: 3.6.5-3
Multi-Arch: foreign
Priority: optional
Section: python
Source: python3-stdlib-extensions
Origin: Ubuntu

ANyway import distutils is noot working.

Is there any command analogous to pip show?

Answer 1

You don't have an issue with distutils . The name to be defined is utils . So doing import distutils.util will never fix that issue.

If you look at the source, there's a utils.py module with the convert_configparser_to_dictionary function defined. You can see that here .

Try import utils instead. This will define the name utils , and it should work as expected. Note: I cannot test this.

HTH.
