Command “python setup.py egg_info” failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-rJRUpL/pyfinite/

I am trying to install pyfinite using

pip install pyfinite

but when I try that I get the following error:

    Collecting pyfinite

    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:

        with open(path.join(here, 'README.rst'), encoding='utf-8') as my_fd:

    TypeError: 'encoding' is an invalid keyword argument for this function



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

Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-rJRUpL/pyfinite/

I re-installed pip but that did not solve my problem although I executed the pip command with sudo and that did not solve my problem.

My operation system is ubuntu 18.04

what is wrong? how to solve this?

so it only works with pip3 install pyfinite? but in the official website they used pip not pip3

If one installs only Python3, there is no need to name pip as pip3. The distinction between pip and pip3 is important to distinguish pip for Python2 and pip for Python3. Also in a virtualenv the script is called pip regardless of the Python version.
