Av not found

Mark-81 · November 2, 2019, 6:24pm

I get this error:

2019-11-02 19:22:02 INFO (SyncWorker_10) [homeassistant.util.package] Attempting install of av==6.1.2
2019-11-02 19:22:11 ERROR (SyncWorker_10) [homeassistant.util.package] Unable to install package av==6.1.2: Failed building wheel for av
2019-11-02 19:22:11 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.setup] Setup failed for stream: Requirements for stream not found: [‘av==6.1.2’].

but I’ve already installed a newer version inside the virtualenv:

pip3 install av
[...]
Installing collected packages: av
  Running setup.py install for av ... done
Successfully installed av-6.2.0

Why it doesn’t find it?

I’m getting a very similar error since updating to v0.101.2:

Testing configuration at /srv/homeassistant/pifour_hass/config

Running under VENV, if you manage to fix it please let me know, I’ve had to disable my camera for now.

Hi,

Same here, but solved by installing the dependencies packages:

apt-get install libavformat-dev libavdevice-dev

I may have forgoten one package…

Codec303 · November 12, 2019, 12:07pm

Same here, but solved by installing the dependencies packages:

What OS are you running please? And how did you know what packages to install?

clyra · November 12, 2019, 12:12pm

Debian here (ubuntu should be the same). The packages was listed on the pip output:

Could not find libavformat with pkg-config.
Could not find libavcodec with pkg-config.
Could not find libavdevice with pkg-config.
Could not find libavutil with pkg-config.
Could not find libavfilter with pkg-config.
Could not find libswscale with pkg-config.
Could not find libswresample with pkg-config.

Since pip was trying to compile the av module you will need the “-dev” packages too. Apt-get will install more packages as they are needed by the two ones that I listed.

Ok, thanks, I’l try installing those. I’m using Raspbian which is also debian based so hopefully I’ll be able to fix this error.

e_jp · November 12, 2019, 9:13pm

Thank you very much, this made the trick. It was super long to install but in the end it worked.

Jer78 · November 13, 2019, 2:19am

Anyone figure this out using Venv on a Mac?

edit: Figured it out…

brew install pkg-config
pip3 install av==6.1.2

RamaSouto · December 7, 2019, 5:26am

Thanks @Jer78 this worked for me as well!

spa46 · December 19, 2019, 7:41am

working after installing the packages

Magnus_Larsson · February 12, 2020, 11:05pm

Thanks!!! solved my problem on ubuntu 16.04.

Thanks @clyra, this solved it for me after python3.8 venv upgrade
