[SOLVED]Problems installing python2-pwntools

Hi everyone I'm trying to install python2-pwntools in every possible ways because I tried to install from AUR, from pip and from git but I can't use to import any libraries when I'm writing and script can't import from pwn cause it displays that doesn't exist, and if I write pwn -h in command line I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/bin/pwn", line 6, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3241, in <module>
    @_call_aside
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3225, in _call_aside
    f(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3254, in _initialize_master_working_set
    working_set = WorkingSet._build_master()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 585, in _build_master
    return cls._build_from_requirements(__requires__)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 598, in _build_from_requirements
    dists = ws.resolve(reqs, Environment())
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 786, in resolve
    raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'sortedcontainers<2.0' distribution was not found and is required by pwntools

And I don't know what indicates that error. I'd Appreciate your help guys thanks.

Re: [SOLVED]Problems installing python2-pwntools

https://github.com/Gallopsled/pwntools/ … tup.py#L61 references
https://github.com/Gallopsled/pwntools/issues/1154 which was resolved by https://github.com/chaimleib/intervaltr … 4278063592 present in 3.02

So the dependency can be changed to

                        'sortedcontainers<3.0',
