I am trying to install SIP on Ubuntu 18.04. I got some information at Installation. It says to use python configure.py, but when I am trying this command from the directory where I have downloaded and extracted SIP, I am getting the following message:

python: can't open file 'configure.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

Somebody please guide me.

You are somehow mistaken. I downloaded the same package as you, and it does contain configure.py.

Commands to get, unpack and configure:

cd /tmp/
wget "https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Downloads/sip/sip-4.19.14.tar.gz"
tar -zxf sip-4.19.14.tar.gz
cd sip-4.19.14/
python configure.py
make

Those commands, if executed in order, provided you have build-dependencies installed, will work.

Did you try:

SIP Download

SIP is provided as a source distribution (sdist) and binary wheels from PyPI. To install it, run the following command:

pip install sip
