'Google Colab: WARNING: Running pip as the 'root' user can result in broken permissions and conflicting behaviour with the system package manager
WARNING: Running pip as the 'root' user can result in broken permissions and conflicting behaviour with the system package manager. It is recommended to use a virtual environment instead: https://pip.pypa.io/warnings/venv
I get the above WARNING while trying to pip install certain packages in Google Colab. I got this WARNING on executing the following line of code:
!pip uninstall -y enum34 && pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel && apt-get update && apt-get install ffmpeg libsm6 libxext6 -y
The warning statement says, to use a virtual environment. How can I setup a Virtual Environment in Google Colab with the venv
module? I didn't find an accepted/satisfactory solution from here.
Also is there any better way, to solve the warning( I wish to solve it, not just get rid of it for namesake.)
