I'm not sure why it doesn't install.

$ python --version
Python 3.7.3
$ pip search ttfautohint
ttfautohint-py (0.4.3)  - Python wrapper for ttfautohint, a free auto-hinter for TrueType fonts
font-ttfa (0.9.1)       - A command line TTFA table reporting tool for fonts hinted with ttfautohint
$ pip install ttfautohint-py

I was able to build from source using:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/fonttools/ttfautohint-py.git@v0.4.3#egg=ttfautohint-py

Had to provide some build dependencies.

that's strange. We build "manylinux" wheels that are supposed to work on any linux distro. Maybe the pip --version that you are using to install it is obsolete. Please try to pip install --upgrade pip and see if that works

I just got the same error on macOS 11.2.

eliheuer commented 3 years ago

Python 3.9.1 Mac mini (M1, 2020) -- apple silicon

Edit: I updated to Python 3.9.2 using brew but still get:

$ pip install ttfautohint-py
