1. Run neofetch -vv 2> neofetchlog
2. Upload the contents of neofetchlog to pastebin, gist or equivalent.

Doesn't get past the missing "from" so none of the debugging requests work as well. This was a brand new fresh pip3 install.

HyFetch supports Python 3.7 and above, but not 3.6. Python 3.6 was released 6 years ago in 2016 and reached end-of-life around one year ago on Dec 2021. Please install python 3.7 or above.

Specifically, from __future__ import annotations is a feature new in 3.7, which adds support for typing annotations that make development much more stable.

You can follow this guide to install python 3.9 on AlmaLinux 8: https://osnote.com/how-to-install-python-on-almalinux-8/

Yep, unlikely to happen across our fleet of VMs (>1000) so looks like I'll have to go back to something else for the rare login banner. Thanks however for the pointer of the issue. Might want to mention that a default supported RHEL 8 release is not supported directly by your application without a custom upgrade.

So I spun up a separate VM to give it a try (installing Python3.9) and didn't get much further...

[root@rancid .ssh]# python3.9 --version Python 3.9.7 [root@rancid .ssh]# more /usr/local/bin/hyfetch

!/usr/bin/python3.9

-- coding: utf-8 --

import re import sys

from hyfetch.main import run

if name == 'main': sys.argv[0] = re.sub(r'(-script.pyw?|.exe)?$', '', sys.argv[0]) sys.exit(run()) [root@rancid .ssh]# /usr/local/bin/hyfetch -vv Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/hyfetch", line 7, in from hyfetch.main import run ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'hyfetch'

[hykilpikonna]

That's weird... I wonder why it says No module named 'hyfetch' even though it's installed. How did you install python39 and how did you install hyfetch? If I know these details maybe I can reproduce the issue...

FYI, I successfully ran hyfetch on both AlmaLinux and RockyLinux 8.6 on my schools' remote labs at UofT and YorkU, and none of them had issues with it.
