installation failure

[khang huynh]

Hey guys, I am trying to use pip install praat-parselmouth on py 3.11.2
however, i can see it installed the dist-info only but not the actual package. Any ideas on how I can fix this? I tried both on my mac and windows pc. Same problem

Hi Khang

I'll need to get some more information to figure out what's going on. What did you run, what is the output? Is the module not loading in Python?

There shouldn't be a `parselmouth` folder, by the way. Because of the way the package is organized, there's only a `parselmouth.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so` (or similarly named, on mac and Windows) shared library.

Cheers

Hi, i ran python -m pip install praat-parselmouth
and here is the output: 
Using cached praat_parselmouth-0.4.6-cp312-cp312-win_amd64.whl.metadata (3.0 kB)

As you can see, I got only the .dist-info but not the actual package

But can you import it?

I assume not, or you probably whouldn't have gone looking inside that folder?

And can you scroll down, cause there shouldn't be a `praat_parselmouth` folder, but there should just be a single all-containing `parselmouth.cp312-win_amd64.pyd` file.

If you download the wheel (https://pypi.org/project/praat-parselmouth/#files and https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/7a/e2/be72261d7213067d256fd94f5cd4269bdc8e8bdec3bf6a382055c5bf1653/praat_parselmouth-0.4.6-cp312-cp312-win_amd64.whl) and open it up, that's what you see:

Hi Khang

Well, can you import the library from Python, in your activated virtual environment?

Just `import parselmouth`, I mean.

Cause that's the goal of the installation in the end, right?

Or why did you start looking for the installation files?

Cheers
