Warning

Debian Bookworm and possibly other configurations:

pip install ... or pip3 install ... commands may only work inside virtual environments or with --break-system-packages parameter, e.g.:

pip3 install --break-system-packages codac

Warning

macOS Big Sur and later (x86_64):

Python wheels provided for Catalina or earlier may need to be installed with something similar to:

sudo pip3 install --upgrade vibes # Add here any other non-binary wheels dependencies...
sudo pip3 install --upgrade --nodeps --platform macosx_10_9_x86_64 --only-binary=:all: --target=/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Library/Frameworks/Python3.framework/Versions/3.8/lib/python3.8/site-packages codac

Depending on the way Python was installed, the path to specify after --target may differ, e.g. if Python was installed from https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.10.4/python-3.10.4-macos11.pkg, it may be /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.10/lib/python3.10/site-packages. Otherwise, run python3 -m site to check the site-packages full path in sys.path list. Also, the value 10_9 may need to be changed to 10_14 (or possibly another value) for some Python versions.

Note

Unsupported computers can still probably follow Installing local Python binding.
