BTW I use bpytop even on 18.04 thanks to conda:

conda install -c conda-forge bpytop

I use conda for my science packages, it's a cross-platform package manager that works without root/sudo (designed for HPCs). But it seems bpytop is also available with pip, have you tried that? Not to mention, there is the new btop++ version available as snap.

Edit: this is more of a workaround, obviously. Feel free to ignore these suggestions if you prefer to instead having the bug fixed.

@armujahid Before I even saw the installation method via APT, I used the pip install with the following

on my Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS server instance

sudo apt install gcc python3-dev python3-pip
pip install --no-binary :all: psutil
pip3 install bpytop --upgrade

I know the pip command for psutil used pip but since these are the exact commands that produced a working install i went ahead and did not change them regardless of the pain my OCD is feeling right now, hope this helps.

@armujahid @janxkoci From README.md#Installation:

I only maintain the PyPi package, so will not take responsibility for issues caused by any other install method!

If there is an issue with a package that isn't the PIP package, you'll will have to contact the maintainer for the repository directly, it's unlikely that they will notice any issues posted here.

Thanks. Closing this issue.
