no module named ConfigParser

Question

I am trying to install port audio because my code (uses pyaudio and speechrecognition) said to build and install the port audio bindings first. Anyway, when I said pip install port audio it said this:

    ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1:
     command: 'c:\users\stewa\appdata\local\programs\python\python38-32\python.exe' -c 'import sys, setuptools, tokenize; sys.argv[0] = '"'"'C:\\Users\\stewa\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\pip-install-nkbwpxww\\audio.coders\\setup.py'"'"'; __file__='"'"'C:\\Users\\stewa\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\pip-install-nkbwpxww\\audio.coders\\setup.py'"'"';f=getattr(tokenize, '"'"'open'"'"', open)(__file__);code=f.read().replace('"'"'\r\n'"'"', '"'"'\n'"'"');f.close();exec(compile(code, __file__, '"'"'exec'"'"'))' egg_info --egg-base 'C:\Users\stewa\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-pip-egg-info-y8d_hj4c'

The package is most probably not python-3 compatible.

As stated in this answer ConfigParser has been renamed to configparser in python-3. You might want to consider either running it via python-2 (not recommended since it's deprecated) or use another updated package (if available)

@STEMguy24 you could **try** downloading it and changing the `import` statement locally (`from configparser import Configparser`) before doing `pip install .` But who knows what other things may need changing to make it python 3 compatible... if it was just the import then they would probably have done it already. – alani Sep 12 '20 at 08:48
