"OSError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted" when installing Scrapy in OSX 10.11 (El Capitan) (System Integrity Protection)
I'm trying to install Scrapy Python framework in OSX 10.11 (El Capitan) via pip. The installation script downloads the required modules and at some point returns the following error:
OSError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/tmp/pip-nIfswi-uninstall/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/six-1.4.1-py2.7.egg-info'
I've tried to deactivate the rootless feature in OSX 10.11 with the command:
sudo nvram boot-args="rootless=0";sudo reboot
but I still get the same error when the machine reboots.
Any clue or idea from my fellow StackExchangers?
If it helps, the full script output is the following:
sudo -s pip install scrapy
