Error Installing Python Bcrypt using pip install bcrypt in Ubuntu 14.04

Question

Please help me figure our why am I unable to install bcrypt in my system running ubuntu 14.04

Error :

somehostname@somehost:~$ pip install bcyrpt
Collecting bcyrpt

I think the error is not because of the warnings, because that is not what the line Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement bcyrpt (from versions: ) says.

Please tell me what is the issue and why is this problem occurring? And how to solve this problem?

Things I have tried already:

1. pip install --pre bcrypt
2. pip install bcrypt==2.0.0

NOTE: I have already installed all the dependencies as required and mentioned in the github repo like libffi-dev, libssl-dev, etc. Also I am running my instance in an AWS t2.micro instance with 1 GB Ram running ubuntu 14.04. Just for additional info.

It's actually a pretty simple mistake. According to the console log you posted, you're spelling bcrypt wrong. You probably need to run it as sudo as well.

sudo pip install bcrypt
