[SOLVED] pip3 SSL Error while installing new package

Issue

I am using Kali Linux, and I am trying to install some requirements of one packet for test purposes, but I keep getting the below error. I have tried many solutions but they are all not working and the error still persists

# pip3 install -r requirements.txt

or

pip3 install name_of_package-py

error I am getting - picture


Solution

Generally, the only command you would need is:

pip install name_of_package

if it doesn't work you could try:

sudo pip install name_of_package

sudo should work, but you have to be careful regarding the package because with sudo you could end up installing a package with some malware in it. Therefore be certain of the reliability of the package.

also depending on the version you are using could be pip or pip3
