Trying to follow guide for Piper Training but running into Python issues #70

Closed TheStigh closed 2 weeks ago

TheStigh commented 2 weeks ago

Hi Thorsten, was suppose to follow your video for setting up Piper Training but ran into a problem quite early.

First: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS Default Python 3.8.10

When running the pip3 install -e . I run into this following error:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement piper-phonemize~=1.1.0 (from piper-train) (from versions: none) ERROR: No matching distribution found for piper-phonemize~=1.1.0

Seems I need Python 3.9?

So I did another install sudo apt install python3.9 with according sudo apt install python3.9-dev

Then I get a new error trying to set up the venv environment:

stigh@ubuntu:~/piper$ python3.9 -m venv .venv Error: Command '['/home/stigh/piper/.venv/bin/python3.9', '-Im', 'ensurepip', '--upgrade', '--default-pip']' returned non-zero exit status 1.

Seems I need to have 3.8 installed as it is part of Ubuntu 20.04.3, so now I'm stuck. Any ideas how I can get around this to avoid updating to Ubunto 22.04 LTS ?

Resolved it myself, installed Python 3.10 and downgraded pip to 24.1 then I ran the venv with Python 3.10 and not Ubuntu default 3.8.
