Getting this error while trying to install a requirements folder. I have no idea what to do so far

Answer 1

I think I ran into a similar issue, it seems like this package is only available for python2 and I am running python3. Check if you have the same issue.

Source: https://pypi.org/project/SelectMenu/

EDIT: you might be able to make it run with python3 with the following hack at: https://github.com/alice1017/SelectMenu/issues/4#issuecomment-773841255

Downgrade prompt_toolkit to 1.0.14

pip install 'prompt_toolkit==1.0.14'
