You will probably have to investigate `pip` (why didn't it remove the `__pycache__` directory?) or `pytest` (why was the `pyc` file created in the first place?) to really fix this, but for now you can try setting `PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE` or running `python` with `-B` (for example, `python -B -m pytest`)","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1019478260

```sh
python3.9 -m venv test
source test/bin/activate
python -m pip install xarray
python -c 'import xarray'

Looking at the traceback you posted it seems you've been trying to install into `/usr/local`? That's something you should avoid as much as possible (unless you're trying to build OS packages).","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1019478260

I also can't reproduce with
```bash
mamba create -n test python=3.9.7  # new clean environment
python -m pip install xarray
python -c 'import xarray as xr'

so maybe there's something wrong with your environment?","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,1019478260
