Open hs6666 opened 3 years ago

hs6666 commented 3 years ago

Hi,

Following these instructions... https://github.com/ccrisan/motioneye/wiki/Install-On-Debian.... to install on a fresh install of debian buster (actually armbian running on a bananapi M1)

Eberything works well, but get pillow errors whilst running "pip install motioneye"

So tried the following fix before running pip ...... "apt-get install python-pillow", but it installs a different app....

root@bananapi:/home/user# apt-get install python-pillow Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Note, selecting 'python-pil' instead of 'python-pillow' The following additional packages will be installed: libimagequant0 liblcms2-2 libwebpdemux2 Suggested packages: liblcms2-utils python-pil-doc python-pil-dbg Recommended packages: python-olefile The following NEW packages will be installed: libimagequant0 liblcms2-2 libwebpdemux2 python-pil 0 upgraded, 4 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 599 kB of archives. After this operation, 1,696 kB of additional disk space will be used.

I run pip again but I still get the pillow error, any ideas how to fix this issue please?

Thanks

Hi, as requested :) .....

python --version

Python 2.7.16

pip --version

pip 18.1 from /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip (python 2.7)

There shouldn't be any issues if either python-pil or python-pillow installed. Both are the same, but there are upstream issues with the python 2.7 now that it's way beyond End Of Life. If you can access everything, you should be good to go. If you have any issues, be sure to ask here.
