Issues Installing pdftotext on MacOS using Anaconda - python-3.x

I am newer to programming and am having trouble installing pdftotext in Anaconda, using Mac OS Mojave 10.14.6 and Python 3.6.7. I have installed all the dependencies recommended (https://github.com/jalan/pdftotext) but have not been able to successfully install pdftotext.
Errors include:
ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1:

I ended up using pdftotext from poppler instead of the package listed above. This required the installation of poppler using conda-forge in Anaconda.
For Mac:
conda create -n envname python=3.7
conda activate envname
conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda install poppler

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'setuptools'
This suggests that you want to install at least one more dependency:
$ conda install setuptools
Or pip install, if you prefer.

Is this a problem with the ssl module itself?
You don't need to install the SSL package for Python 3. It is a built-in module.
The SSL package on Pypi explains its purpose:
The old socket.ssl() support for TLS over sockets is being superseded
in Python 2.6 by a new ‘ssl’ module. This package brings that module
to older Python releases, 2.3.5 and up (it may also work on older
versions of 2.3, but we haven’t tried it).

Unable to import tkSnack from Python3

I'm trying to import tkSnack from Python3 in Debian 10.
I have already installed tkSnack from apt:
apt-get install python3-tksnack
Anyway, when trying to import tkSnack module frome python3:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tkSnack'
I have also tried to install tkSnack from pip, but the following error message appears:

It's strange that, when importing tkSnack in python2.7 all works well!
Does anyone have any idea about this? Thaks!
There're 2 separate problems in your question so it'd be better if you've asked 2 different questions.
You installed the package with system package manager apt-get but tried to use with local anaconda environment. That doesn't work: packages installed with system package managers should be used with system-installed python. To install packages into virtual environments (including anaconda) use conda or pip.
SyntaxError in print means the code is for Python2 only; in Python3 print becomes a function and requires parenthesizes: print(GCC_VERSION). It seems you installed a wrong, Python2-only version of the package and is trying to use it with Python3. Uninstall it and reinstall with code update for Python3.

"pip install gevent" on windows gives IndexError

I'll be grateful for any clues on how to resolve this. (FWIW, I also tried pip --no-cache-dir install gevent, amongst other variants. They all failed the same way - please see below).

Looks like setuptools is missing.
Try pip3 install setuptools
this is where the error is reported.
# Setuptools 0.7b and later is a suitable (and preferable)
# substitute for any Distribute version.
try:
pkg_resources.require("setuptools>=0.7b")
return
except (pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound,

if not no_fake:

raise ImportError
What is the version number of setuptools?

Able to figure out below are the steps,
brew install freetds
Then try to install requirements.txt file.
If still getting errors then follow . . the below steps.
pip install cython
pip install pymssql
then again try to install requirements.txt file.
