error: replaygain initialization failed: Failed to load GStreamer: python-gi not found

Led to this problem:

$ pipx uninstall beets
$ pipx install beets

Setup

• OS: Ubuntu 24.10
• Python version: 3.12.7
• beets version: 2.1.0
• Turning off plugins made problem go away (yes/no): no

It seems like you have plugins embedart, fetchart, lastgenre and replaygain enabled, however their dependencies are missing. Have you installed beets with extras for each of those plugins? For example see fetchart docs.

In your case the command is probably pipx install beets[embedart,fetchart,pylast,replaygain]

[gboysko]

Thanks, @snejus. I had not installed those plugins. I was following the FAQ's instructions on installation, but didn't notice that. I uninstalled, then installed again using this command:

$ pipx install beets beets[embedart,fetchart,pylast,replaygain] --force

Not sure how to resolve PyGObject.

[snejus]

See replaygain docs.

It seems like GStreamer is missing from your system. Have you been using replaygain previously or did you only enable it now? If your current configuration was in place before the update, I expected system dependencies to be present already!

[gboysko]

I had used replaygain previously. I'm not sure how it was lost. I will try to resolve all of the various dependencies. Even after installing python3-gi, I'm still unable to install due to an unresolved dependency of PyGObject. I'll keep digging...

[snejus]

What sort of system are you using? It seems like system dependencies are missing, for example on Ubuntu you'd want to install

sudo apt update
sudo apt install ffmpeg gobject-introspection libgirepository1.0-dev

[gboysko]

I'm using Ubuntu 24. Is this information already in your docs?

Sorry no luck, even after installing dependencies.

Not sure what else I can do. I was able to use the prior version of beets, fwiw.

[gboysko]

I'm including the error log file.

cmd_2024-11-26_15.41.03_pip_errors.log

The file indicates failures to compile?

[snejus]

Is replaygain working fine with the old version? Could you run pipx runpip beets list and show me the list of packages installed in this environment?
