I was trying this new sensor and got this error in the log:
17-01-15 23:32:24 homeassistant.bootstrap: Not initializing sensor.usps because could not install dependency myusps==1.0.1
How do I get that dependency installed? I thought it would be part of the “upgrade” ??
Hi, I had the same issue. I am trying to search it in Google, but without much luck as of yet.
Okay, I feel I am getting closer to the solution, just not quite there yet…this is what I did so far.
$ sudo systemctl stop [email protected]
$ sudo su -s /bin/bash homeassistant
$ source /srv/homeassistant/bin/activate
$ pip3 install myusps <--- I GET AN ERROR AT THIS POINT, BUT HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT MEANS

You need to make libxml2-dev or libxml2-devel (depending on the operating system you are using) available on your system.
I can confirm this. Do this first:
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
sudo apt-get install libxslt1-dev
Then get on homeassistant virual env to install myusps with:
pip3 install myusps
It confirms installed. So I restarted HA, then I got this in the home-assistant.log file:

@vnguyen972 you can try to download the code available at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tchellomello/home-assistant/myusps_cookie/homeassistant/components/sensor/usps.py which worked for me here.
All you have to do is to create a directory custom_components/sensor and place this file there.
We are currently waiting for the PR to be approved and once it becomes officially supported in HA, you will be remove the custom file and upgrade HA.
Please let me know if it worked for you or if you need any extra help.
Sorry about these problems, guys.
I’ll consider switching myusps to use a XML lib that doesn’t require a system dependency.
@happyleaves, no worries. Thank you for even coming up with such a cool idea! Could you, please write the exact steps of how it should be installed for it to work on the Pi image or point me in the right direction?
@tchellomello The link you have attached does not work. Could you please double check it? I get a “404: Not Found” error.
Thanks in advance for all your help!
Hello @davidc28,
I’ve restored the link and should be working now.
You can also download it directly from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/dev/homeassistant/components/sensor/usps.py since it was merged.
Let me know if that worked for you.
Good news!! The fix was included on version 0.36.1 (https://home-assistant.io/blog/2017/01/14/iss-usps-images-packages/#release-0361---january-17). Just remove the file from custom_components/sensor directory and upgrade HA normally.
It should work now as expected.
Thanks everyone!
Thanks for your contributions to HA. I love the system.
I installed 36.1 just now to use newest version of USPS. I now get this error:

Do you need anything else?
Did you opt in to My USPS? Can you view your My USPS Dashboard in your browser? Does it list any packages?
I am receiving the same error as Jaalperin. After reading your comment, I went into my USPS account and found where you actually Opt-In to the My USPS service (something we might want to make more clear on the component page). I am still getting the same error, however I do not have any pending packages at this time. I assume we should wait until we have a package listed under the “My Packages” section before setting the sensor up?
Yes. So I think there are two takeaways here:
Thanks for this.
I just made a quick edit to the USPS component page that says you need to Opt-In to the service and submitted the pull request. First time doing this, so I hope I did it right.
I returned to usps.com and discovered that I was not opted-in. Sorry, thought I was. Anyway, now I am, but I get this error:

Thanks again for your services to HA.
As noted above, this is likely because you don’t yet have any packages listed. It’s a bug in the component’s module dependency (when I wrote it, I already had packages listed and couldn’t test the no-package state – oops).
So once a package shows up, it should start working.
I’ve installed the dependencies and did the pip3 reinstall. But I am still having a problem.How do I troubleshoot this issue ?
