Where are install_requires names coming from?

Question

Recently, I installed a package that requires Pygame learning environment: https://github.com/ntasfi/PyGame-Learning-Environment

I added 'ple' to my install_requires, but got this error despite PyGame-Learning-Environment being successfully installed:

  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement ple (from MonsterKong-RandomEnsemble==0.0.1) (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for ple (from MonsterKong-RandomEnsemble==0.0.1)

The project was not uploaded to pypi.org where `pip` and `easy_install` look for packages to download and install by default. If you want the package to be declared as a dependency in the setup script, you will need to specify the link to download the package from; check out this question for more details: [Python setuptools: How can I list a private repository under install_requires?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18026980/python-setuptools-how-can-i-list-a-private-repository-under-install-requires) — hoefling, Dec 15 '18 at 10:33

Check for other MonsterKong-RandomEnsemble versions and also check if your spelling for the distribution name is correct

yes my question was how do you know the right distribution name? To import that distribtion, you use "ple" so i assume thats the right name – user3180 Dec 15 '18 at 07:59
