Setting functools gives me an AttributeError object 'module' does not have an attribute 'compose'

I installed Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit on a new system and cannot install functools. I installed this several times, but I don’t remember this error and cannot find any solution through Google. What do I need to do?

Python2.7 comes with functools enabled.

You can install functools32 if you want to get the lru-cache decorator that was introduced with Python3.2.

Edit: I really checked this out. I have the same error when I tried to connect functools using Python2.7. Just do import functools and continue as usual.

Received a solution on the windows.

  • Remove the link to functools in the site-packages folder.
  • easy_install -U pip==7.1.2

Make sure this is the version of functools32 in Python version 2.x. 3.x tools are built-in.
