Expected Behavior

when I download get-engineer in terminal for it to successfully download...

Current Behavior

I've installed python 3. I have installed pip. I have installed greenlet, I have then ran "python3 -m pip install gpt-engineer" and keep getting the below error message. Even tho I have successfully downloaded greenlet?

Failure Information

I'm on a MacBook Air. MACOS 10.15.7.
the error message I keep recieving says:
" 1 error generated.
error: command '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/clang' failed with exit code 1
[end of output]

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
ERROR: Failed building wheel for greenlet
Failed to build greenlet
ERROR: Could not build wheels for greenlet, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects"

Failure Logs

If your project includes a debug_log_file.txt, kindly upload it from your_project/.gpteng/memory/ directory. This file encompasses all the necessary logs. Should the file prove extensive, consider utilizing GitHub's "add files" functionality.

this is where the error occurred:

It seems like the error you're encountering is during the installation of the greenlet package on macOS, where the build process is failing. This type of error is usually related to either the environment setup or a compatibility issue with the installed version of Python or the system's compilers.

Here are a few steps you might consider to resolve this issue:

  1. Update Xcode Command Line Tools:
    Sometimes the issue arises due to outdated or missing Xcode command line tools, which include the clang compiler needed to build some Python packages.

    • Open Terminal and run: 
      xcode-select --install
    • After the installation, you can also ensure that the command line tools are properly selected: 
      sudo xcode-select -s /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools

  2. Install Using a Pre-built Wheel:
    If building from source continues to fail, you might want to check if a pre-built binary (wheel) is available for your platform and Python version. This can avoid the need for compilation.

    • You can try installing greenlet using pip with the --only-binary option: 
      pip install greenlet --only-binary :all:

  3. Use a Python Virtual Environment:
    Sometimes, using a virtual environment can help avoid conflicts with other package versions or system-wide settings.

    • Set up a new virtual environment: 
      python3 -m venv env
source env/bin/activate
    • Try installing greenlet within this environment: 
      pip install greenlet

  4. Check for Compatibility Issues:
    Ensure that the version of greenlet you are trying to install is compatible with your Python version and macOS version. You might need to install an older version of greenlet if compatibility issues are present.

  5. Consult the Error Logs:
    If the issue persists, consulting the full error log can provide more specific clues about what is going wrong. Since the output can be lengthy, examining the last few lines (or any lines mentioning specific errors) can be particularly helpful.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, please provide any additional details from the error logs, which can offer more insight into what might be going wrong.

Thank you for the great answer Corey. This is not primarily an issue with gpt-engineer, so I will close the issue. Feel free to continue chatting here if you want though
