lgpio’s Python package stubbornly remaining a broken waste of time is why I set up this repository and tagged those releases to propose and demo solution. The problem as yet remains unsolved.

Unfortunately I don’t maintain lgpio or the Python package so I’m afraid the best I can offer you - short of suggesting you try installing the contents of this repo which might work - is some company in your misery! Sorry.

I’m surprised those release files don’t work, though, could have sworn I tested them.

The actual source and maintainer can be found here: https://github.com/joan2937/lg

But afaik they abdicated responsibility for the Python package to gpiozero, so there’s a fork here too: https://github.com/gpiozero/lg

I’d say you’re better using the official gpiod package (which is the route I eventually took), but that has its own set of challenges.

Welcome to my special little hell! 😭

Okay I can’t imagine this helps 😫

I've, hopefully, fixed up all of the source releases here so they should work for your purposes.

This is a short term kludge only. Please join me in complaining here 😆 - gpiozero/lg#1

Thanks, that change has fixed the problem. interesting that Pip managed to kinda install the module but not really. I've added a comment to the thread you linked
