Hello OpenBabel users, I've been having issues with OpenBabel and thought I might use some help from more experienced users. My main problem is that I have (apparently) installed OpenBabel succesfully, but other softwares cannot access it. For example, when I try to run a programm that uses OpenBabel ('mk_prepare_ligand.py -i 1iep_ligand.sdf -o 1iep_ligand.pdbqt --pH 7.4'), I get the following error:
'Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/artur/.local/bin/mk_prepare_ligand.py", line 11, in <module> from openbabel import openbabel as ob ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'openbabel'' Furthermore, if I try to remove openbabel from my system, I receive a message (in Portuguese, so I won't copy it here) saying that "openbabel isn't installed, so it won't be removed". However, I can easily execute the comand obabel through my Ubuntu 20.04 terminal. Additionally, if I try the command pip install -U openbabel, I get the following error message: Collecting openbabel Using cached openbabel-3.1.1.1.tar.gz (82 kB) Building wheels for collected packages: openbabel Building wheel for openbabel (setup.py) ... error ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: command: /usr/bin/python3 -u -c 'import sys, setuptools, tokenize; sys.argv[0] = '"'"'/tmp/pip-install-ctx5tcrx/openbabel/setup.py'"'"'; __file__='"'"'/tmp/pip-install-ctx5tcrx/openbabel/setup.py'"'"';f=getattr(tokenize, '"'"'open'"'"', open)(__file__);code=f.read().replace('"'"'\r\n'"'"', '"'"'\n'"'"');f.close();exec(compile(code, __file__, '"'"'exec'"'"'))' bdist_wheel -d /tmp/pip-wheel-xzrzd_1p cwd: /tmp/pip-install-ctx5tcrx/openbabel/ Complete output (66 lines): running bdist_wheel running build running build_ext Warning: invalid version number '3.1.1.1'.

Is Open Babel installed? You may need to manually specify the location of Open Babel include and library directories. For example: python setup.py build_ext -I/usr/local/include/openbabel3 -L/usr/local/lib python setup.py install ---------------------------------------- ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: /usr/bin/python3 -u -c 'import sys, setuptools, tokenize; sys.argv[0] = '"'"'/tmp/pip-install-ctx5tcrx/openbabel/setup.py'"'"'; __file__='"'"'/tmp/pip-install-ctx5tcrx/openbabel/setup.py'"'"';f=getattr(tokenize, '"'"'open'"'"', open)(__file__);code=f.read().replace('"'"'\r\n'"'"', '"'"'\n'"'"');f.close();exec(compile(code, __file__, '"'"'exec'"'"'))' install --record /tmp/pip-record-ik_t9mkr/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --user --prefix= --compile --install-headers /home/artur/.local/include/python3.8/openbabel Check the logs for full command output. I have no clue as of why Swig is failing, since I have installed it perfectly. I don't quite understand how to execute the suggestion given after this error, so I don't know what to do. I tried following the instructions at https://open-babel.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Installation/install.html#compile-bindings, but maybe I did something wrong. Would anyone be able to help me out? Any help is more than appreciated. Thank you so much in advance! -- Artur
