Not working on Ubuntu 18.04

I just get the error message

But manim is working properly on my system. I guess there is some kind of version conflict. Is this project acutally still in development? I think the idea of connecting manim with notebooks is beautiful and has a lot of potential!

it seems that you run anaconda. Is your Jupyter notebook running in the same environment that your working manim installation?

I know that many people have problems running Jupyter and other more advanced tools with anaconda... the intuition is that such projects may have custom path resolution rules and some packages cannot be found.

Specifically, on cairo (or rather pycairo) this is likely complicated by the presence of the system-wide installation (which is often the way it is installed).

Hope that the hints may help.

Anyway, it does not look like directly connected to jupyter-manim package - and yes, I wish I will find a moment to develop it further!

Nice, actually I have two anaconda environments.

• base -> here is the jupyter notebook installed
• manim -> here is manim and your package installed, but not jupyter.

Option 1This solution is working! Short tutorial for installing in anaconda:

1. Open Terminal (base interpreter) and type anaconda-navigator
2. In the home-tab go to "Applications on.." and switch to your manim env.
3. Klick on "Install Jupyter notebook"
4. Close the navigator, open the terminal and type conda activate manim
5. type install jupyter-manim
6. Launch the notebook with jupyter notebook.
7. First line in the notebook cell: import jupyter_manim

Option 2This solution is not working

• Installation of the manim kernel into the jupyter notebook ( jupyter notebook installed in the base env). I tried to follow some ideas from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39604271/conda-environments-not-showing-up-in-jupyter-notebook?answertab=active#tab-top But still, the manim env is not there to select from the notebook.

Thanks Michał for your reply!
