tensorflow: Failed install on Windows

Python 3.6.4

There is a strange error when I install tensorflow 1.5.

Unknown requires Python '>=2.6, <3' but the running Python is 3.6.4

Why the dependency is futures? It doesn’t have a verion of Python 3.6.4.

Same problem here on Ubuntu 16.04 with Python 3.5. Clearly, Python 3 doesn’t need futures. And with Python 2.7, using : pip2 install tensorflow-gpu==1.5.0 it goes well. Here’s a solution for Python 3: The error is occurred when installing the version of futures 3.2.0 for Python 3. It is noticed that:

It should not be installed on Python 3, although there should be no harm in doing so, as the standard library takes precedence over third party libraries.

First, install futures 3.1.1:

pip3 install futures==3.1.1 then : pip3 install tensorflow-gpu==1.5.0 Do not add the --ignore-installed or -I
