pabramowitsch opened a new issue #9490: Unable to install mxnet on MacOS .. no version seemingly compatible with Python3
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/9490
 
 
   I just want to play with mxnet using prebuilt code on MacOS but the pip install fails.  Following the instructions on the Apache MXNET pages,  My command line is
   
    **python3 -m pip -vvv install mxnet=='0.11.0'** 
   
   but I can get the same error with the latest version. (I also get the same message using the default python & pip which are 2.6.4)   
   
   I get a bunch of lines like this:
   ```
   Skipping link https://pypi.python.org/packages/b8/4a/01cbb5ba05aef7721293be2de348e8ad648be9d39636d6aac6428ae22b34/mxnet-1.0.0b20171218-cp36-cp36m-macosx_10_12_x86_64.whl#md5=db310aa94547e59b2d5fc491ef63787d (from https://pypi.python.org/simple/mxnet/); it is not compatible with this Python`
   . . .
   Cleaning up...  No matching distribution found for mxnet==0.11.0
   ```
   I'm pretty sure that pip3 isn't referring to python 2.x in this process because my verbose output contains t
   ```
   Exception information:  Traceback (most recent call last):
     File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pip/basecommand.py", line 215, in main
       status = self.run(options, args)
   ```
   And I can see a version to install because doing **pip3 search mxnet**  I get
   `mxnet (1.0.1b20180118)          - MXNet is an ultra-scalable deep learning framework. This version uses openblas.`
