AssertionError: importlib-metadata .dist-info directory not found

问题描述：由于我的python 程序中导入了click包，但是没有安装该包导致报错如下：

ImportError: No module named click

那么，我们首先想到的就是安装它喽

pip install click

可是用抛出异常了

You are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 21.3 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

一看这简单，都给出解决方法了，就是干，继续Ctrl+c/v，执行以下命令：

pip install --upgrade pip

又抛出异常了，妈妈咪呀

这个问题我找了好多教程都是各种方法升级pip的，比如python -m pip install --upgrade pip这种，没啥暖用，，，，

最后，终于找到了一个老哥的帖子，说是这种情况可能是版本升级跨度较大，低级版本无法直接升级到高级版本，，，这好办啊，咋升级跨度别那么大，（我猜可能他怕一下升上去扯着蛋吧。。。。）

咱加个版本号再升级，哎成了

python -m pip install --user --upgrade pip==20.2.4

结束了，终于好了，我的click这是也安装成功了
