Debian 10 Stable pyo import error #104

I'm rather new to this, so please feel free to close this issue if it's not appropriate.

I recently tried to run Cecilia from source on Debian 10 Stable, and I ran into a problem importing pyo. Specifically, the error I got was on l. 24 of Resources/Widgets.py:

from pyo.lib._wxwidgets import ControlSlider, HRangeSlider
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pyo.lib'; 'pyo' is not a package

I found that this error occurred because on my system, rather than lib being a subdirectory of pyo, they both installed as one directory, pyolib. In order to run Cecilia, I had to change the original line to from pyolib._wxwidgets import ControlSlider, HRangeSlider.

I understand that this may no longer be the case on more up to date systems, but I thought I might let you know in case other people have this issue.

Debian buster has version 0.9.1 in its repositories, it's rather old...

Either you compile pyo from source (which is not very complicated):

Or you install pyo from sid repositories (version 1.0.3):

! Don't forget to uninstall your current pyo installation !
