  File "/home/arturo/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/PyInstaller/loader/pyimod03_importers.py", line 623, in exec_module
    exec(bytecode, module.__dict__)
  File "pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 86, in <module>

Thanks for the solution. It works for me on Windows 10/python 3.7.2:

pip uninstall pyinstaller
pip install https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/archive/develop.zip

I found the solution on this post.

Basically, The steps are:

Remove PyInstaller pip uninstall pyinstaller.
Download the zip from github.
Unzip file.
Make sure you are in the directory with "setup.py" and run: python setup.py install

This doesn't make much sense to me--these are just instructions for uninstalling, and then reinstalling pyinstaller from a development version of GitHub. Can you explain why you believe this to be a solution to the OP's problem? – Iguananaut Feb 10 '20 at 14:49

@Iguananaut I think this can be a solution, because the missing package error is a bug in the production version, just reinstalling with pip doesn't make a difference. Everyone with this same problem install the develop version and work's – Gabriel Rodrigues Segalla Feb 10 '20 at 15:00
It didn't work, im not sure if the problem is caused because im trying top read a csv using files from anothger folder. – Arturo Velásquez García Feb 10 '20 at 16:13
Ok, that would be worth noting (and linking to the upstream bug report if there is one). but for what it's worth you can pip install a package directly from its source repository, e.g. like `pip install git+https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller.git`. – Iguananaut Feb 10 '20 at 16:14

Add the following argument to your pyinstaller command line:

--hidden-import=pkg_resources.py2_warn

That fixed it me with little problems.
