Question

we are installing the pkg: MarkupSafe-1.1.0-cp27-cp27m-manylinux1_x86_64.whl by pip

we download the pkg from - https://pypi.org/project/MarkupSafe/#files

we have redhat OS with version 7.2

as the follwing:

 pip install -v --no-index --find-links PIP/ MarkupSafe-1.1.0-cp27-cp27m-manylinux1_x86_64.whl
Ignoring indexes: https://pypi.python.org/simple
Requirement 'MarkupSafe-1.1.0-cp27-cp27m-manylinux1_x86_64.whl' looks like a filename, but the file does not exist
MarkupSafe-1.1.0-cp27-cp27m-manylinux1_x86_64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.
Exception information:

    wheel.filename
UnsupportedWheel: MarkupSafe-1.1.0-cp27-cp27m-manylinux1_x86_64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

we get - is not a supported wheel on this platform.

but the Linux versions should be fit to this pkg

we verify by uname -a

 uname -a

Linux Master 3.10.0-327.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Oct 29 17:29:29 EDT 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

 more /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.2 (Maipo)

python --version
Python 2.7.5

so what is happened here ?

What version of python are you using? cp27 refers to CPython 2.7... — AJefferiss, Dec 05 '18 at 16:41
Does the source version work? https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/ac/7e/1b4c2e05809a4414ebce0892fe1e32c14ace86ca7d50c70f00979ca9b3a3/MarkupSafe-1.1.0.tar.gz — AJefferiss, Dec 05 '18 at 16:46
Can we see the result of `python -c "import struct; print(struct.calcsize('P') * 8)"`? I want to see if your python is 32-bit or 64-bit. — phd, Dec 05 '18 at 17:57
`pip` tells you that it can't find the wheel file. Does it exist? — hoefling, Dec 05 '18 at 19:27

This could be happened due to out-of-date pip.

Try python -m pip install --upgrade pip

little strange because we installed the latest version - python-pip-7.1.0-1.el7.noarch.rpm – Judy Dec 05 '18 at 17:01
`pip 7.1.0` is certainly not the latest version. The current latest version is [18.1](https://pypi.org/project/pip/18.1/). – phd Dec 05 '18 at 17:56
