Could not find a version

Question

I'm on mac trying to install the module "arcpy" with pip. I use this command:

pip install --user arcpy

And I get this error:

  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement os (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for arcpy

Can someone tell me the problem?

@Megalng ok but it happend to me with the module "arcpy" too. — janpolroik, May 30 '18 at 04:33
You cannot install arcpy with pip.. it's not a free software. More info here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31328368/where-and-how-can-i-install-arcpy-for-python-2-7 — Maxim Kukhtenkov, May 30 '18 at 04:35

Update: Original question was asking about os package and then it was replaced with arcpy. To summarize:

os module is already part of the Python core library. You can just import it in your Python code. External os package does not exist in Python package index.
arcpy is not a free software and cannot be installed with pip

This doesn't answer the question at all. Where is there a mention of the `os` module anywhere? – cs95 May 30 '18 at 04:36
The original question was edited. Originally it was asking about `os` package, with no mention of `arcpy`. – Maxim Kukhtenkov May 30 '18 at 04:37

Well, might as well delete. – cs95 May 30 '18 at 04:38
Also ArcPy only runs on Windows. – PolyGeo May 30 '18 at 12:20
