acq4 installation issues

[louison pineau]

Hi, I recently had to change my setup computer and I had to reinstall acq4. I followed the procedure as described  in the documentation but I keep getting this error when I try to start the software:

$ python -m acq4
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<frozen runpy>", line 198, in _run_module_as_main
  File "<frozen runpy>", line 88, in _run_code
  File "U:\acq4\acq4\__main__.py", line 99, in <module>
    gc = GarbageCollector(interval=1.0, debug=False)

    self.timer.start(interval * 1000)
TypeError: arguments did not match any overloaded call:

(acq4)

I tried to find a solution but I can't make sense of it.

Thanks in advance for your help !

Best,

As Martin mentioned elsewhere, you have an old version of pyqtgraph. This is fixed in more recent versions.
