Nala Python Error On Use after Installation #41

Closed TheBrokenG0d closed 1 month ago

TheBrokenG0d commented 2 months ago

I'm currently on Debian 12 and installed Nala via volian-scar

Run I try to run any Nala command I get

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/nala", line 5, in <module> from nala.__main__ import main File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/nala/__init__.py", line 67, in <module> import debian.debian_support # isort:skip ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'debian'

I can provide further info if needed.

Very interesting. This is listed in the control file, so the dependency should have been gotten. nala --version shows v0.15.1?

If it wasn't installed, this should resolve it apt install python3-debian

So I already have python3-debian version 0.1.49 If I try to run nala --version I get the same error message as in my first post. But if I run apt policy nala it shows I have v0.15.1

apt policy nala

Does this file exist?

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/debian/debian_support.py

If not I would try to reinstall python3-debian. Something definitely weird is going on.

This fixed my issue, I did not even have a Debian folder under dist-packages just Debian-bundles.
