issue with package

[fakedit]

the package currently displays this error when attempting to install through pip:

  error: subprocess-exited-with-error

  × python setup.py egg_info did not run successfully.

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
error: metadata-generation-failed

are you planning on updating the package at all? if not, is there anyway we can fix this issue individually?

I was not able to reproduce with python version 3.9.10

Can you share what version of python and pip you're trying to use this package with?

Hello,

I can confirm, I'm experiencing the same error. I'm using Python 3.10.4 , pip 22.1.2 on Windows 10 in a venv.

Any ideas?

Edit : tried again with 3.9.13 and pip 21.1.3 and pip 22.1.2 : same error

Using the same versions on Unix I was not able to replicate. A friend tried and was able to reproduce. I've pushed a fix and deployed it. Try installing the latest version with

pip install mercari==1.0.2

I believe the issue was an encoding thing on Windows. Please let me know if the version bump solves the problem so I can close this or share if the same or different issue.

@marvinody I just installed it successfully. Thank you very much for your time and effort!
