[SOLVED] Python virtual enviroment error

I just migrated from debian to archlinux, and I can't use the python virtual enviroment to flash an image on a sd card:

Debian distro

sudo apt install python3-venv
python3 -m venv ~/ox64_venv
. ~/ox64_venv/bin/activate
pip install bflb-iot-tool

Archlinux distro
According https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Python … nvironment I installed:

sudo pacman -S python
python -m venv ~/ox64_venv
. ~/ox64_venv/bin/activate
pip install bflb-iot-tool

Unfortunatelly when I try to flash, I get errors:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'bflb_path'
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'

I tryed to use pip to install missing modules, but they can't be found.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Re: [SOLVED] Python virtual enviroment error

pkg_resources is python-setuptools. That might let it load the other one, too.

I tryed this

sudo pacman -S python
sudo pacman -S python-setuptools
python -m venv ~/ox64_venv
. ~/ox64_venv/bin/activate
pip install python-setuptools

but error is still there.

Re: [SOLVED] Python virtual enviroment error

pip install python-setuptools

What output did that produce in the venv?  Also in the venv what is the output of `pip list`?

(ox64_venv) [gio@aimec ~]$ pip install python-setuptools
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement python-setuptools (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for python-setuptools

(ox64_venv) [gio@aimec ~]$ pip list
Package          Version
---------------- -------
bflb_crypto_plus 1.0
bflb-iot-tool    1.8.7
ecdsa            0.19.0

pip              24.0
portalocker      2.0.0

pycryptodome     3.9.8

PS this solved the issue:
(ox64_venv) [gio@aimec ~]$ pip install setuptools
