Re: fenrir-screenreader installation with pip3
Howdy,
Seems that the configure script of python-dbus can not detect your
intallation, nor setuptools recognice that you already have the bindings
installed. Very strange...
what happens if you try to import dbus in pyhton?
1 open python by typing "python" into an shell.
2 import dbus by typing "import dbus" into python
does an error appear or is it done without any output (success).
not sure why your configuration cannot found properly here. If the
import works, you can try installing fenrir via the "install.sh" script
manually. its not the recommented way because it will not be able to
update, nor install the dependencys but it may also work.
in that case any dependency must installed manually.
cheers chrys

Ok, here is a strange one. I have, over the past couple of days been
trying to get fenrir to install on this kali system. This is all I
need to have a talking command line terminal interface.
I have tried pip3 install fenrir-screenreader
just as I should have. I have attached the resulting typescript file
for the attempted installation. Dbus is installed and there seem to
be about 3 instances of it running. I did not kill off any of them
because I know nothing as yet about dbus.
I even have the python-dbus and the python3-dbus packages installed so
the situation I am mentioning is absolutely impossible. If I am doing
something wrong I would like to know what it is so that I can fix it
and complete the installation and configuration of my system.
As you can see in the attached typescript file, some of the things the
configure script checks for seem to be missing along with the existing
dbus. I don't know what these are and what extra packages I need to
install.
I have also upgraded the setuptools which are included with the
interpreter thinking this might have something to do with it. I have
looked on line and have found nothing about this problem.
I am sending the typescript file along so that someone might be able
to help me find out what else needs to be installed. I hope to get
this resolved soon and get fenrir up and talking so that I can easily
have a command line screen reader.
Thanks for the help.
