Alexa Media Player failing at startup

If it might be helpful, this post has a fix that got Alexa Media Player working for me again with HA 2024.8.0. To recap the fix:

  1. First, using Visual Studio Code (or any other file editor of your choice), open this file:
    /homeassistant/custom_components/alexa_media/manifest.json

  2. Then, locate the line within that file that says requirements: and change that line to this:
    "requirements": ["alexapy>=1.28.2", "packaging>=20.3", "wrapt>=1.14.0"],

  3. Then reboot Home Assistant.

PS Full credit to sca075 within that issue thread for this. :raised_hands:t2:
