Root Cause

The user pressed Ctrl+C (or sent SIGINT) during a pip install operation, causing Python to raise a KeyboardInterrupt exception that pip handles as an abort.

generic

中文

用户在 pip install 操作期间按下了 Ctrl+C(或发送了 SIGINT),导致 Python 引发 KeyboardInterrupt 异常,pip 将其处理为中止。

Workarounds

  1. 100% success Simply re-run the pip install command. Example: pip install package
    Simply re-run the pip install command. Example: pip install package
  2. 90% success If the installation was taking too long and you want to avoid future aborts, consider using a timeout or running in background: timeout 300 pip install package
    If the installation was taking too long and you want to avoid future aborts, consider using a timeout or running in background: timeout 300 pip install package
  3. 80% success Use pip's --no-cache-dir flag to avoid re-downloading if the abort happened during download: pip install --no-cache-dir package
    Use pip's --no-cache-dir flag to avoid re-downloading if the abort happened during download: pip install --no-cache-dir package

中文步骤

  1. 只需重新运行 pip install 命令。示例:pip install package
  2. 如果安装时间过长且希望避免未来中止,请考虑使用超时或后台运行:timeout 300 pip install package
  3. 使用 pip 的 --no-cache-dir 标志避免在中止后重新下载:pip install --no-cache-dir package

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 10% fail

    The error is transient; simply re-running the command works.

  2. 20% fail

    The abort is due to user input, not permissions; sudo does not prevent Ctrl+C.
