Why is pip throwing error while installing packages?
I am using Kubuntu.
I can not install any package using pip.I uninstalled pip and reinstalled it restarted my computer, internet connection, terminal. But the problem remains the same.My internet connection has no issue.
It would be very helpful if you guys can give step by step solution.

Further to what Nomi Shaw and jugmac00 said, I had the same problem a couple of months back and it drove me crazy. I don't know how likely it is that you're experiencing the same problem but just in case:
My errors were caused by an internet filter I installed (Pluckeye) that it turns out was blocking not only my browser connections but all my other connections too (pip, calibre, r...). Once I set it to a lower level of restriction everything worked fine!
As Nomi Shaw suggested, your problem seems to be a weak internet connection.
Also, please do not install third party packages into the global python interpreter by directly using pip or pip3.
Please, create and activate a virtual environment first.
RealPython.com has an excellent article about the why and the how:
