Support
1

I’m trying to install the RV3028 Pimoroni Python software from here;

All I’m getting is error messages saying it must be installed into a virtual enviroment. I have the Pimoroni virtual enviroment installed and actvated via the st7789 installer.
Running
python3 -m pip install rv3028
or doing
git clone https://github.com/pimoroni/rv3028-python
cd rv3028-python
sudo ./install.sh
gets me nowhere?

Might be worth trying this repackaged branch maybe?

Thank’s, I was looking for something like that. I’ll give it a try and report back.

That did the trick, thanks. =)

Or maybe try running the Python in the virtual environment rather than the system one?

~/.virtualenvs/myvirtualenvironment/bin/python3 -m pip install rv3028

swapping in your actual location and name for the venv.
