(Fixed) Issues installing python-serial
Posted: Sat May 06, 2023 4:46 pm
Hi guys,
I decided to buy a Pi and I found one on Marktplaats. It contained no SD card, so I had to install everything from scratch. It's now running the newest PiOS BullsEye with the latest Python 3.9.9. I now get stuck when installing the python-serial package:
I do have a pyserial package installed:
But I think this is python3-serial, not python-serial. And the ToonRooter doesn't work with it, I think:
Any idea how to fix that? Do I have to downgrade to a Python 2.x release?
Thanks for any help!
Kind regrads,
Eric

This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
