@casualsnek commented on GitHub (Aug 8, 2023):

There was a small mistake in README.md about installing the built wheel package. I have updated it can you please check it and see if it fixes the issues:

Instead of pip install .
run

python -m build
pip install ./dist/*.whl

Should install build or include it in reqeriments.txt 👍

eduardo@MiPcLinux:/opt/onthespot$ python -m build
/usr/bin/python: No module named build

So i solved it:
eduardo@MiPcLinux:/opt/onthespot$ pip install build

Also i faced this problem:

Installing collected packages: onthespot
  WARNING: The script onthespot_gui is installed in '/home/eduardo/.local/bin' which is not on PATH.
  Consider adding this directory to PATH or, if you prefer to suppress this warning, use --no-warn-script-location.
Successfully installed onthespot-0.5

So onthespot should be installed in one standard bin directory, in PATH like /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin

On a default Ubuntu desktop install $PATH is:

$ echo $PATH
/usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games

Thanks for your work
