Heyo,
hope I'm not missing something.
During the
pip install -r requirements.txtstep, I get the following error during package installation:Python is 3.12, I'm installing it inside a venv.
I found issue https://github.com/kivy/kivy/issues/8391 on the Kivy repo, but according to the comments there it was fixed when Python 3.12 support was added.
I'm thinking that I would possibly need to update some versions in requirements.txt, but I don't want to start messing around without knowing anything about the fixed versions, fearing API breakage and I am confused by the
.zipfile dependency as well.Would you be able to take some time to clear things up for me? I would appreciate that very much. :)

Hello @AlexanderRitter02,
I think Python 3.12 is the problem.
Please use Python 3.9 (the one I used at that time) and give it a try!
Regarding the
zipfile dependency, it's just a snapshot of theKivyMDlibrary I used (to prevent any API breakage), but you can replace it by the the commit link from their Github repository if you want.@AlexanderRitter02 commented on GitHub (Jul 12, 2024):
Aye, that was it.
I'm just not familiar with the python ecosystem, didn't consider version breakage. I read 3.9+ in the Readme and didn't think much of it, that maybe I should try the original version, sorry.
Knowing what the
zipfile is for, I actually just tried updating Kivy to the latest commit, but that resulted in the same issue as in #3, the components must have changed.All good and running with Python 3.9 now, thank you!
