You are the one being rude, Nikos.

Moreover you are a nut, installing pygeoip works fine
for me:

# pip install pygeoip
Downloading/unpacking pygeoip
Downloading pygeoip-0.3.0.tar.gz (97Kb): 97Kb downloaded
Running setup.py egg_info for package pygeoip

Installing collected packages: pygeoip
Running setup.py install for pygeoip

Successfully installed pygeoip
Cleaning up...

you've probably completely messed up your system, as you
are completely incompetent as a UNIX/Linux admin and broke
your system.

No i haven't broke it at all.
Everything work as they should.

The refusal of 'pygeoip' to install turned out to be the local setting in my new VPS.

So i have changes it to:

export LANG = en_US.UTF-8

and then 'pip install pygeoip' was successful.

Trying to figure out how to install-setup EPEL repository along with python3 && python3-pip and 2 extra modules my script needed in my new VPS have costed 4-5 of my life and of my mental health, while if you just helped a bit these would have been done in a couple of hours.

Please try to restrain yourself.

I understand the urge to vent your frustration but it will
accomplish nothing. We are all frustrated by Nikos's behaviour
but we all rely on each other not to increase that frustration
through responding to his threads and thus prolonging their
duration.

How could anyone have known that this was the problem? AFIAK you didn't even tell about the VPS. And moreover this wasn't a Python problem, so off topic here.

It was an obscure error message produced by a python installer
when trying to install a python package. It certainly is on topic.

Please don't set up different standards for posters you don't
like -- others who don't know better might understandably think
they apply to everyone.

Any chance you could stop acting like a troll and generating new email

You claim you're acting in good faith, so stop appearing to do otherwise.

That's by no means certain. Often, problems like that can
only be solved by someone sitting in front of the system
in question and poking around in it.

Debugging obscure problems remotely via usenet is extremely
difficult, and it's even more difficult if the question
essentially just consists of "This doesn't work, please
help me!".

If you don't get a response to a question like that, it's
not because people are refusing to help. It's because
nobody happens to have seen that exact set of symptoms
before, so without further information, they *can't*
help.
