Error when installing

[GodAtum360]

When trying to install (pip install podcastfy) I get the error:

     ../meson.build:1:0: ERROR: Unknown compiler(s): [['cc'], ['gcc'], ['clang'], ['nvc'], ['pgcc'], ['icc'], ['icx']]
      The following exception(s) were encountered:
      Running `cc --version` gave "[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'cc'"
      Running `gcc --version` gave "[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'gcc'"
      Running `clang --version` gave "[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'clang'"
      Running `nvc --version` gave "[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'nvc'"
      Running `pgcc --version` gave "[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'pgcc'"
      Running `icc --version` gave "[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'icc'"
      Running `icx --version` gave "[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'icx'"

I am running Python 3.13 on Ubuntu 20.

That's interesting... This error message suggests that Meson, a build system, is unable to find a C compiler on your system.

Have you tried:

sudo apt update sudo apt install build-essential

Thanks, I had to run these:

sudo apt install build-essential sudo apt install python-dev sudo apt-get install python3.13-dev

Now when running python -m podcastfy.client --help, I get the error: `Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 198, in _run_module_as_main File "", line 88, in _run_code File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/podcastfy/client.py", line 12, in from podcastfy.content_generator import ContentGenerator File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/podcastfy/content_generator.py", line 13, in from langchain_google_genai import ChatGoogleGenerativeAI File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/langchain_google_genai/init.py", line 58, in from langchain_google_genai._enums import HarmBlockThreshold, HarmCategory File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/langchain_google_genai/_enums.py", line 1, in import google.ai.generativelanguage_v1beta as genai File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/google/ai/generativelanguage_v1beta/init.py", line 21, in from .services.cache_service import CacheServiceAsyncClient, CacheServiceClient File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/google/ai/generativelanguage_v1beta/services/cache_service/init.py", line 16, in from .async_client import CacheServiceAsyncClient File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/google/ai/generativelanguage_v1beta/services/cache_service/async_client.py", line 50, in from google.ai.generativelanguage_v1beta.services.cache_service import pagers File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/google/ai/generativelanguage_v1beta/services/cache_service/pagers.py", line 41, in from google.ai.generativelanguage_v1beta.types import cache_service, cached_content File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/google/ai/generativelanguage_v1beta/types/init.py", line 47, in from .discuss_service import ( ...<7 lines>... ) File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/google/ai/generativelanguage_v1beta/types/discuss_service.py", line 22, in from google.ai.generativelanguage_v1beta.types import citation, safety File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/google/ai/generativelanguage_v1beta/types/safety.py", line 224, in class SafetySetting(proto.Message): ...<48 lines>... ) File "/home/christopher/env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/proto/message.py", line 279, in new file_info.generate_file_pb(new_class=cls, fallback_salt=full_name)

This error suggests a conflict in the Google AI Generative Language library. This is likely due to incompatible versions of dependencies or a problem with the installation.

Please try

pip install --upgrade google-ai-generativelanguage langchain-google-genai podcastfy

[GodAtum360]

Unofrtunately still get the same error.

I also get what looks like an identical error, running Python 3.13 on a Mac (with Sequoia 15.0.1, build 24A348).

I tried upgrading the two modules you mentioned above, but it said that everything was up to date, and the error persists.

Thanks for sharing your experience. This further motivates the release of a docker image. There is an already an open issue on it and we should be able to release soon.
