"pip" error message

[Richard Guinn]

Hi Simone and all -
I'm not sure how to fix/correct... but just a redundant 'me too'.  I tried
to install pybibframe (https://pypi.org/project/pybibframe/) and also keep
getting errors.  Wasn't sure if it was the module/package or what.

My error is along the lines of:

  ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1:
     command:
'c:\users\rickrigby\appdata\local\programs\python\python38-32\python.exe'
-u -c 'import sys, setuptools, tokenize; sys.argv[0] =
'"'"'C:\\Users\\RickRigby\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\pip-install-_x4to3h7\\amara3.xml\\setup.py'"'"';

When I 'Google' the error - I find that there's an apparent bug
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60937863/error-command-errored-out-with-exit-status-1


Doesn't sound like there's an easy workaround.
