   duplicate with #4746 .
   
   My comment in #4746 
   
   One of the reason for this issue is that you run the python command in the exact directory you install MXNet.
   
   Say that you clone the MXNet project into /home/user1/incubator-mxnet, you build the mxnet library then go to the python directory to run install command python setup.py install --user.
   
   After that , please exit the python directory before you run python to test mxnet.
   
   As there is a directory named mxnet in the incubator-mxnet/python directory, if you run python in directory incubator-mxnet/python and then import mxnet as mx, python will try to import the directory instead of the mxnet lib.
   
   In conclusion, do not start python shell in the incubator-mxnet/python directory, or else you will get the cannot import name libinfo error message.
   
   Please create a new issue to report it if you didn't run python shell in incubator-mxnet/python while you get the same error message cannot import name libinfo
