installing skperious on mac M1 fails with "ERROR: failed building wxWidgets"
Closed this issue · 3 comments
Hello,
I am trying to get skyperious installed and running on a Macbook Air M1, Mac OS 11.6
I used Terminal: pip install skyperious
Please does anyone have an idea what I could try to get skyperious installed onto my computer or running on it somehow?
Thanks

Unfortunately, Macs are rather unknown territory for me.
This is a general issue with getting wxPython installed. I assume pip install wxPython or pip install -U wxPython fail equally?
If I had to hazard a guess, this is due to needing the older version of Python, 2.7. OS support for it has been steadily deteriorating in recent years.
If you are using any other package managers, like conda, perhaps you can get wxPython installed via them?
Another option - Skyperious has a Dockerfile. But again, I am unfamiliar with using Docker on Mac.
The newly released version 5.0 ought to be easier to install, as Skyperious can now use Python 3.
Skyperious is now also installable via Snap.
