Can't install omxplayer-wrapper on Raspbian

[chq1976]

Hi,

i have a brandnew installed "Raspbian with desktop".

When i type in terminal..

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y libdbus-1{,-dev}

..i geht this errormessage (translated from german):

Package libdbus-1 can not be found.

What could be the problem?

Hi Chris,

Looks like libdbus-1 no longer exists in the latest release, try sudo apt install -y libdbus-1-3 libdbus-1-dev

i also have not been able to install omxplayer-wrapper on either a pi zero or pi4 running a fresh install of raspbian. I used pip and got the libdus missing error message, I then tried installing it again after sudo apt install -y libdbus-1-3 libdbus-1-dev. This error message appeared: No package 'glib-2.0' found and command "/usr/bin/python -u -c "import setuptools, tokenize;file='/tmp/pip-install-3H5M9M/dbus-python/setup.py';f=getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)(file);code=f.read().replace('\r\n', '\n');f.close();exec(compile(code, file, 'exec'))" install --record /tmp/pip-record-WBOnBU/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-install-3H5M9M/dbus-python/

Hoping to find an alternative to omxplayer-wrapper.

It looks like you're missing glib2, try install that through apt

I did sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev then sudo pip install omxplayer-wrapper Everything appeared to install correctly. Successfully built dbus-python Installing collected packages: dbus-python, decorator, evento, scandir, pathlib2, omxplayer-wrapper Successfully installed dbus-python-1.2.16 decorator-4.4.2 evento-1.0.2 omxplayer-wrapper-0.3.3 pathlib2-2.3.5 scandir-1.10.0

But still something wrong when I use Omxplayer-wrapper ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'omxplayer.player'; 'omxplayer' is not a package
