Propbelm with pip installation on MAcOS X High Sierra

[tomirving]

Installed /private/tmp/pip-install-FbS_bv/tifffile/.eggs/numpy-1.15.0rc2-py2.7-macosx-10.13-intel.egg
error in tifffile setup command: 'install_requires' must be a string or list of strings containing valid project/version requirement specifiers; Expected version spec in pathlib;python_version<"3.0" at ;python_version<"3.0"

----------------------------------------

Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /private/tmp/pip-install-FbS_bv/tifffile/
Not sure if this is the only issue.

It seems that the error occurs when installing tifffile.
You can try running

pip install -U setuptools

to upgrade python setuptools and then install tifffile again

pip install tifffile

I have created a new virtual machine running 16.04 and all seems to be well. I am not sure what the problem with 18.04 is but it can be sorted out later. Thanks Tom Irving Thanks, Tom Irving
