I would like to install 10K-MDA-Section from Github (https://github.com/rflugum/10K-MDA-Section) but when running this command in the prompt:

pip install --upgrade git+git://github.com/rflugum/10K-MDA-Section

I get this error:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\Users\\...\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\pip-req-build-1vmt3z0t\\setup.py' ---------------------------------------- Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-req-build-1vmt3z0t\

Any idea what is causing this?

As long as the repository (rflugum/10K-MDA-Section) does not have a setup.py file, a pip install won't work.

Check if cloning, and then executing MDA Extractor.py directly (python MDA Extractor.py)is enough.

I see, that makes sense. Thanks, I will try that approach.

The pip install is looking for a setup.py file and the FileNotFound error implies that the file is not present (Since a pip calls setup.py to proceed with the installation.)

The way forward should be to clone the git repo and then execute python MDA Extractor.py

Isn't this exactly what I just said in my answer?
Thank you, that makes sense. I guess VonC beat you to the punch, but I still appreciate the help. Will try this!!
