Install error

[karhide-xx]

Hi,

I am not sure what is going on but if I run py -m pip install chords2midi I get the error below. Any ideas what is going wrong?

Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable

[peterjlu]

Also getting this error -- have you been able to solve this?

[henrik6]

The same for me :-(

[Miserlou]

This program was not updated for python3 yet. I'll push a new version today.

[karhide-xx]

Thanks @Miserlou let me know when and I will test.

This is what I am getting - as of August 2022.

Try running pip pointing directly to the source code. This worked for me on python 3.9.13:
pip install git+https://github.com/Miserlou/chords2midi

The package in the pip repo is currently still pointing to 0.7.0
https://pypi.org/project/chords2midi/

but the sourcecode has been updated to 0.9.0 to be used against python3, but looks like it has not been published to the repo yet.

This is what I am getting - as of August 2022.

That fixed it for me; thanks!

[tooh]

Also had this error.
As noted by @j-ans1 root cause is

The package in the pip repo is currently still pointing to 0.7.0
https://pypi.org/project/chords2midi/

but the sourcecode has been updated to 0.9.0 to be used against python3, but looks like it has not been published to the repo yet.

Is this package still maintained ?
