ImportError: cannot import name 'registry' from 'pandas.core.dtypes.base'

Question

I just did a conda install of a few packages to follow a tutorial, and now I can't even import pandas.

I installed these:

fake-factory==0.7.2
Faker==0.7.3
pytz==2016.7
tzlocal==1.3.0

And now I get this:

>>> import pandas
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\envs\ariel\lib\site-packages\pandas\__init__.py", line 42, in <module>

    from pandas.core.dtypes.base import ExtensionDtype, registry
ImportError: cannot import name 'registry' from 'pandas.core.dtypes.base' (C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\envs\ariel\lib\site-packages\pandas\core\dtypes\base.py)

I tried doing a conda update pandas, but to no avail.

I also just installed luigi, not quite sure when it broke as I installed all the additional packages in one go.

Answer 1

Updated version of pandas package using pip3 try this in python3

pip3 install --upgrade pandas
