Install Kivy on Ubuntu 18.04. not working

  • 772

I'm trying to install Kivy, a Python Framework, but run into problems using pip.

Following the instructions on https://kivy.org/doc/stable/installation/installation-linux.html I get the following error.

Can someone help? What Input should I post here to resolve the issue?

$ python -m pip install --upgrade --user pip setuptools virtualenv

pip is configured with locations that require TLS/SSL, however the ssl module in Python is not available.
Cache entry deserialization failed, entry ignored
Could not fetch URL https://pypi.python.org/simple/pip/: There was a problem confirming the ssl certificate: Can't connect to HTTPS URL because the SSL module is not available. - skipping

  1. Install openssl package.

    sudo apt install openssl

    This should do it.If not fixed and if you are using python3 then you may install:

    sudo apt install python3-pip

    Then try this:

    pip3 install setuptools vurtualenv
