[New-bugs-announce] [issue35938] crash of METADATA file cannot be fixed by reinstall of python

[Feștilă George Cătălin]

New submission from Feștilă George Cătălin <catalinfest at gmail.com>:

The pip install module crash with this error:

Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 2] No such file or
 directory: 'c:\\python364\\lib\\site-packages\\traits-4.6.0.dist-info\\METADATA
'

You are using pip version 18.1, however version 19.0.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'python -m pip install --upgrade pip' comm
and.

I try to fix with the reinstall the python 3.6.4 but not working.
I think the METADATA was delete by the antivirus.
The version I used is 3.6.4 but the crash can be at any python version.
