I have Python 3.8.2 in the latest version of Windows 10.
Python works well, I have neuron installed via pip too.
I run into the error message below. I also tried installing from git, but unsuccessfully.
It seems I'm missing the "freetype" and "png" package...
But again, netpyne didn't pass this stage...
