Exception when running example splits: Failure "Hotkeys stream exited unexpectedly"

I've successfully built flitter but when I try to run flitter splits.scm with the example, I see the timer as it's shown in the screenshot for just a moment then get the following error:

Uncaught exception:

  (Failure "Hotkeys stream exited unexpectedly")

I ran opam list and lwt is the latest version, 4.1.0. Also using opam 2.0.0 and ocaml 4.07.0 but on debian 9 stable. I installed opam manually from the unstable repo.

Have you installed pynput like this?

$ pip3 install --user pynput

If so, could you tell me what happens when you run this?

$ echo 'import pynput' | /usr/bin/env python3

That was the problem, thanks. I had Anaconda python in my path rather than the system's python so it couldn't find pynput. Simply had to remove it from my path and flitter works as intended.

Great, glad to hear!
