error while running requirements.txt SRGAN project (Chapter 5)

[JDakhelpour]

I have experienced an error while installing requirements file to setup environment for chapter 5 project in book "generative adversarial networks projects"

Here is the error:

(venv) C:\Users\ASUS\JUPYTER Homeworks\T3\ebooks_codes\ebook GAN codes\Generative-Adversarial-Networks-Projects-master\Chapter05>pip install -r requirements.txt
Collecting absl-py==0.6.1 (from -r requirements.txt (line 1))
Using cached absl-py-0.6.1.tar.gz (94 kB)
Preparing metadata (setup.py) ... error

raise RuntimeError('Python version 2.7 or 3.4+ is required.')
RuntimeError: Python version 2.7 or 3.4+ is required.
[end of output]

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
error: metadata-generation-failed

× Encountered error while generating package metadata.
╰─> See above for output.

note: This is an issue with the package mentioned above, not pip.
hint: See above for details.

this error is corresponding to absl-py package. Some of other packages also were not installed (absl-py==0.6.1
keras-contrib==2.0.8
Keras-Preprocessing==1.0.5
matplotlib==3.0.2
kiwisolver==1.0.1
Keras-Applications==1.0.6
numpy==1.15.4
opencv-python==3.4.5.20
Shapely==1.6.4.post2
six==1.12.0
tensorboard==1.12.2
)
would you please explain what I should do?
Your fast answer is highly appreciated.

Best regards

Hi, you need to use Python 2.7 or 3.4.

I installed python 3.4 and I inserted the commands from chapter 5 of the book but it did not work
