Build error on 'homeassistant-pyozw'

Installation

Hi,

totally new to home assistant, but got it running with https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/installation/raspberry-pi/

Want to use a zwave usb stick, but it does not work because of following build error:

2018-11-25 18:27:48 ERROR (Thread-11) [homeassistant.util.package] Unable to install package homeassistant-pyozw==0.1.1: Failed building wheel for homeassistant-pyozw

2018-11-25 18:27:48 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.setup] Setup failed for zwave: Could not install all requirements.

Have no clue, whats going wrong here. Any hints how to solve this?

Regards
Thomas

You’re missing setuptools: pip3 install setuptools unless you’re using HASS.io then best check on discord.

Thanks for your fast reply.

But that is not the problem…

(homeassistant) homeassistant@smarthome:/srv/homeassistant$ pip3 install setuptools
Requirement already satisfied: setuptools in ./lib/python3.5/site-packages

Removed completely “/srv/homeassistant” and repeated the installation, after starting ‘hass’ the same error raises up again.

Any other hints? What do you mean with “check on discord”?

Thomas

Give sudo apt-get install libudev-dev a shot

@firstof9: you made my day!

Installed “libeudev-dev” (eudev replaces udev in devuan, https://devuan.org/). Now it works.

Hi
I try command sudo apt-get install libudev-dev
but ask me for password for SUDO. What is a pass for sudo in virtualenv python.

You don’t execute it in the venv
