Swig executable not found on path

Hi, I'm trying to install pypylon on a SuSe 12 SP4 server, but having some trouble with Swig path:

ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1:

Which is the correct path and how to set it?

Thanks in advance!

You have to be able to call 'swig' from the environment from where you call setup.py.

Check that you use swig4.x ..

Make sure you have to call "swig" from your enviroment. If you couldn't call the swig, Install with pip3 and try again.

I did it by installing swig and gcc by conda install -c anaconda siwg and conda install -c anaconda gcc directly on my env.

Thanks for the support!
