Answer 1

I believe you need to do the following:

1- Download package root directory: https://github.com/materialsintelligence/mat2vec .

2- Open a python terminal and navigate to the downloaded package root directory path.

3- Run the command: pip install --ignore-installed -r requirements.txt .

4- Run the command: python setup.py instal .

5- Run the command: cde data download .

Answer 2

Your system may have 2 different versions of Python and your pip command may call the Python 2.x version.

To solve this problem, you should install Python 3 version of pip with these steps:

sudo apt update

sudo apt install python3-pip

After this process, please check is it successfully installed or not with this command:

pip3 --version

It must give you a result like this:

pip 9.0.1 from /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (python 3.6)

After all these steps you can install your desired Python package with:

pip3 install mat2vec

If it requires a sudo permission please use:

sudo pip3 install mat2vec

I hope this is your solution, if it is not please share the result with me. I may help you, thanks.

I did check the GitHub page of your targeted package and the solution must be the @TheRockSays 's solution.
