I'm having problems using the requests library. I used pip to install it and I also intalled through github and the installation goes just fine. But when I try to import the lib, I get this error:

I saw in another post a person saying something about the PATH, but I didn't understand... Something related to a conflict between /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin. I don't know if this have something to do with it. I also have used pip2.7 to install the lib and it shows in the pip listcommand. I'd appreciate any help.

  Have you seen this: github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/4020 and tried the sudo pip uninstall enumfollowed by sudo pip install enum34? – FlyingTeller Mar 27 at 10:16

• Oh man, I saw this before, but for some reason I forgot to uninstall the enum. Problem solved. Thanks! – Ulisses Alves Mar 27 at 10:22

The issue is in the cryptography module. It can also be found on the github page. The solution seems to be that you need to replace the enum package:

pip uninstall enum
pip install enum34

Note that you need to use sudo pip if you are using packages from /usr/
