Some time between 0.11 and 0.14.2, streamlink started requiring isodate. Here's the error message I get trying to run streamlink without isodate: pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'isodate' distribution was not found and is required by streamlink Installing dev-python/isodate-0.6.0 fixed it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make sure dev-python/isodate is not installed 2. Install =net-misc/streamlink-0.14.2 3. Run streamlink Actual Results: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/streamlink", line 6, in <module> from pkg_resources import load_entry_point File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3098, in <module> @_call_aside File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3082, in _call_aside f(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3111, in _initialize_master_working_set working_set = WorkingSet._build_master() File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 573, in _build_master ws.require(__requires__) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 891, in require needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements)) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 777, in resolve raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers) pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'isodate' distribution was not found and is required by streamlink
confirming, upgraded streamlink 0.11.0 -> 0.14.2 --> pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'isodate' distribution was not found and is required by streamlink installed isodate 0.5.4 manually -> works again
