Try pip install spotify-cli, it throws a GCC error which I have no clue how to fix. I'm using python:ucrt from the package manager
#Python always gives me issues

how about posting what your error is, that's the best thing you can give if you want actual help
glass mantle
sure, but I'm sure it's a generic error that happens because pip is getting confused with all the gcc version we have
midnight hatch
it shouldn't

https://paste.gg/p/anonymous/beaadf683307440dbcb21b4820f4103d this is done with python in the clang64 environment with the clang python pip
I'll try in ucrt next
btw what's the pip package you installed?
what command did you use to install it?
glass mantle
pip install spotify-cli
midnight hatch
nope
not what I'm asking
was it just pacman -S mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-python-pip or was it something else?
because that would narrow it further down for me
because it looks like you installed the wrong PIP package
glass mantle
that's the one.
midnight hatch
it installed just fine for me
glass mantle
damn really?
midnight hatch
there must be something that's interfering with your pathing
glass mantle
do you switch msys environments when doing these?
midnight hatch
Always.
if I want clang I select the clang environment by launching clang64.exe etc
same thing for ucrt
It properly sets up the proper environment variables needed for that setup. I know there's the built in stuff, but for me it's the ease of mind that the environment launcher executables are there
glass mantle
that's weird, if pip was installed using ucrt, it should know which compilers to use
midnight hatch
Which it does. Because as shown on my end, it works.
glass mantle
Imma try a fresh install. You recommend using mingw-64's python for msys?
which I'm guessing is the only one that works in msys as per https://www.msys2.org/docs/python/
midnight hatch
I recommend the proper python package for your selected environment.
glass mantle
one python for each enviro?
midnight hatch
Yes.
