I'm sorry, it's been a long time since this happened and I don't recall. I fought with it for a long time. I was getting help from an AI to do this stuff, and we eventually ran out of options, so it recommended I send this bug report. I've never done so before.
I was eventually able to resolve it much later, with the help of a different AI. I do not recall all the details, but I believe there was a conflict between python versions and the system I was using. I had never been able to get the virtual environments to work, so I had been using apt to install modules like numpy systemwide as a workaround. But that doesn't always work. But once that conflict was resolved and everything was using compatible versions (I vaguely recall it being a 32-bit vs 64-bit thing), virtual environments, numpy and everything else started working properly. I haven't had any trouble with it since. Unfortunately I'm not able to recall much better than that. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful than that, and I probably shouldn't be sending bug reports on the advice of an AI -- lesson learned -- but thank you for all the stuff you guys do. I use python, linux and raspberry pi all the time for all kinds of projects. I'm not tech-savvy enough to be someone like you, but I'm science-savvy enough that these kinds of tools are wonderful and amazingly helpful. It's such a great thing to make technology like this approachable for others. There's no telling how many advances and discoveries you guys have contributed to unknowingly. Thank you!
