Could not build wheels for ____ which use PEP 517 and cannot be installed directly

Don’t worry — it usually just means pip is having trouble building the package. A simple way to fix it is to force pip to install from source instead of using a wheel. Just run:

pip install <package-name> --no-binary :all:

This tells pip:

• don’t use pre-built stuff, build it from scratch.

• Also, make sure your build tools are up-to-date:

pip install setuptools wheel build

That’s it. This method is totally normal, especially for packages with native code or special build steps.
