Error on install:

[rickcecil]

When I try installing from pip, I get the following error:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement forum-dl (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for forum-dl

When I try to install from a local clone, I get the following error:

ERROR: File "setup.py" not found. Directory cannot be installed in editable mode: /path/to/forum-dl
(A "pyproject.toml" file was found, but editable mode currently requires a setup.py based build.)

For pip, I've tried pip and pip3. I generally need to use pip3 to install things from pip for python3. I get the same error using both commands.

pip3 --version

pip 20.0.2 from /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pip (python 3.8)

Thanks for any help. And let me know if you need any additional data.

After some experimentation, it looks like you need python 3.10.11. I switched to this version and was able to complete the install.

Yeah, I should state it more prominently which Python versions are supported. I can try to lower the minimum version, if I recall correctly the primary blocker was merely some type annotation features.
