Root Cause

Network connectivity issues or a slow connection to PyPI caused the read operation to time out.

网络连接问题或与 PyPI 的连接速度过慢导致读取操作超时。

Workarounds

  1. 80% success 
    pip install --timeout 120 package
  2. 85% success

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 50% fail

    Transient issues may resolve, but persistent timeouts require configuration changes.

  2. 95% fail

    SSL verification is not the cause of timeout.

  3. 90% fail

    The issue is network-related, not package-specific.
