Package installation broken

My pip install command appears to be broken on one of my course notebooks. No matter how I try I can’t install anything. I constantly get the error -

ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ‘/opt/conda/lib/python3.10/site-packages/numpy-1.26.4.dist-info/METADATA’

This resulted from a !pip install fastai from a code cell and I get similar results for numpy and any other package for that matter, which is disastrous

Has anyone any ideas because this is stopping all work within that particular lesson?

Never mind. I figured that particular notebook was seriously broken at the system level, so I simply exported the notebook and duped it into another notebook and voila back on track.

Sometimes, the issue might be specific to the course environment or setup. Check the course documentation or forums for any environment-specific instructions Covered California or updates. You might need to reinstall Conda itself. Backup your environment and configurations.
