Can't use Input Remapper with Python 3.12 on EndeavourOS (Arch Linux) #882

Closed daniloraisi closed 5 months ago

daniloraisi commented 5 months ago

Recently, I've upgraded my OS and got Python 3.12 by default.

When trying to use Input Remapper, I receive the error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'inputremapper';

The same error happened before on #723.

The error is caused because Input Remapper is installing its python packages under /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages instead of the current python version.

The result of running find /usr/ -iname "*input*remapper*"

How can I get it back to work using Python 3.12 on Arch?

Oh, the Python 3.12 update would explain why it broke for me too, was getting the exact same error.

Though fortunately, it seems like uninstalling, clearing my paru cache, then re-installing fixed this for me. Maybe that could work?

That worked! Thanks!

Closing the issue as it is fine now!
