Cannot install python module stacks

[schwinbp]

Tried running the python version but got pummeled with missing modules that were never mentioned in readme. One module called Stacks failed to install. Any ideas how to install this?

pip install stacks Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable Collecting stacks Using cached stacks-0.1.0.tar.gz (39 kB) Preparing metadata (setup.py) ... error error: subprocess-exited-with-error

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip. error: metadata-generation-failed

Which operating system are you using ?

If you run:

python --version

are you running python v3 or v2 ?

I quite like: https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv

to get control, over my python versions/environments.

SOrry I forgot to add that info before.

OS: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS on WSL2 ((GNU/Linux 5.15.153.1-microsoft-standard-WSL2 x86_64))

Python3 --version => 3.10.12 python --version =>Command 'python' not found

I've never tested this on the WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux)

Perhaps look at the windws/WSL notes for pyenv - and try using it?

pyenv

i seem to have encountered the same issue

OS: Rocky Linux 9.4 (Blue Onyx) Kernel: Linux 5.14.0-427.40.1.el9_4.x86_64 Python: 3.9.18

Hi I just spun up a Rocky Linux 9.4 instance on AWS EC2 - and ran these commands below and then aws2tf without issues

So it must I think be related to your local python environment ? Perhaps try https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv
