I seem to have everything installed that needs to be there (and did `pip install 'dvc[all]'` to be sure), but dvc still complains that it needs dvc-gdrive. (rebooted too)  
`dvc doctor` throws an error too.

```bash

Experiencing same issue where dvc[gdrive] installed but receiving same error. @kupruser Can you post the Discord solution here in forum as I am unable to see any result in discord.
