I am not able to use any package which has some connection with the PyCall package. I tried following the instructions in one of the cases (for using ScikitLearn package) and have given the output below. I tried resolving the error by following online resolved issues and felt like I am making it worse. Please help me fix this issue. I am using Julia v1.4.1 in Ubuntu 20.04 WSL.

I’ve never used PyCall or ScikitLearn, but it looks like perhaps those error messages have led you a little astray.
You probably don’t want Pkg in your Project.toml, so I’d start by undoing the Pkg.add("Pkg") step.
I’d just hit the backbrace ‘]’ to enter package mode and do
pkg> rm Pkg
For safe, measure, I’d suggest trying:
pkg> st
and see what you have in there. You should have at least ScikitLearn.
Your first error message indicates that you need to rebuild PyCall. For that, I’d try
pkg> build PyCall
How far does that get you?
Note:
Pkg is a standard library, so unless your package is doing something with Pkg, you don’t need to add it, but you do need to either import it or use the package mode by hitting ‘]’ like above.
I usually do the latter when I’m in the REPL so I don’t need to import Pkg.

I got the below output after executing the 3 commands you mentioned. I have ScikitLearn in the output of line 2, but the problem still persists, as seen in output of line 3.

Ok. Maybe you do need to import Pkg. So I’d try,
julia> import Pkg; Pkg.build("PyCall");
How is that?

Maybe there is some issue with Conda installation? I am seeing the Error: Error building `Conda` line a lot in these error messages.
I just installed Julia in Windows through Atom and successfully installed the packages I wanted. I am guessing there is some issue either with me using WSL, or using Jupyter Notebook, or a combination of both. I guess this is the only way I have right now to make use of the packages I want.
Thank you EricForgy for trying to help me on this issue.
