error installing a new skin

[Marco Citossi]

I'm trying to install this skin in weewx 5.0.2 but I get errors. I think it is not compatible anymore.

weectl extension install https://github.com/neoground/neowx-material/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
Using configuration file /etc/weewx/weewx.conf
Install extension 'https://github.com/neoground/neowx-material/archive/refs/heads/master.zip' (y/n)? y

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/weewx/weecfg/__init__.py", line 714, in get_extension_installer
    __import__('install')
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'install'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Agree.  That is a very unusually packaged skin that doesn't seem to be compliant with the weewx extension installer (or at least the v5 one).  It hasn't been updated in 3 years according to the github page.  The toplevel readme in github has a manual procedure.....https://github.com/neoground/neowx-material/blob/master/dist/readme.txt

I've seen. Do you suggest to install the skin manually? anyway is there any other similar skin that you suggest?

Thanks.

If you want to install that skin, you'd need to install it manually and follow their instructions.

There are too many other skins to suggest anything similar.   Most people like Belchertown but that has a different look.
