Problems with starting menuconfig

[JustMeNL777]

I have problems starting make menuconfig for the hello world example in the setup guide. My machine is a Mac running 10.14.5.

I followed the guide @https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... setup.html but got to this point:

The following Python requirements are not satisfied:
cryptography>=2.1.4
pyparsing>=2.0.3,<2.4.0

Please refer to the Get Started section of the ESP-IDF Programming Guide for setting up the required packages.
Alternatively, you can run "/usr/bin/python -m pip install --user -r /Users/user/esp32-idf/esp-idf/requirements.txt" for resolving the issue.

Can someone help me to get this working?

Hi JustMeNL777,

is the output of "which python" /usr/bin/python or something else?

[JustMeNL777]

@Roland,

Thank you. You triggered me to check versions. The output of which python is /usr/bin/python, which on a mac is 2.7.10.
The buidllog above shows 3.7 was used.

I went to /usr/bin and issued the python - m pip install --user -r $IDF_PATH\requirements.txt again and it installed the missing pieces (after moaning about other missing pieces which I had to install manually).

Anyway: (this) problem solved, on to the next.
