packages/pip + py import error #55

Closed JonnesCranach closed 1 year ago

JonnesCranach commented 1 year ago

Hi,

great project, I need to have a deeper look into it when I have time. pip is running into errors installing cairo, so I installed it via apt.

python3-cairo python3-cairo-dev libcairo2-dev libgirepository1.0-dev (after removing them again pip build was successfully) ... weird

starting remapper.py or also web.py is resulting in

remapper.py

Traceback (most recent call last):

Thanks for help or hints

File a bug report against hidtools. They've release a package that claims to support Python 3.6+, yet tries to import things that only exist in Python 3.10+.

JonnesCranach commented 1 year ago

using 3.1+ helps?

Dreamsorcerer commented 1 year ago

hidtools==0.3.1? It was released only a little earlier, so may or may not have the same issue. I guess 0.2 is the version we were using when testing, but getting hidtools to fix their testing/packaging would avoid us needing to pin to a specific release.

Can confirm that changing the line: https://github.com/ruundii/bthidhub/blob/391044c2868255b2da6d593f6fa4826fa3bb330c/install/on_rpi/on_pi_setup.sh#L36

To: sudo pip3 install hid-tools==0.2

Fixes the error.
