Description

Ran into the following error when installing Edge Insights for Industrial software package.

ERROR: Cannot uninstall 'PyYAML'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial uninstall.

Resolution

Remove PyYAML manually using the following command:

apt-get purge python3-yaml

Once the package has been removed, run the installation:

./edgesoftware install
