aubio dependency incompatible with required Python 3.12 — fails to install on Windows #9

Description

@Z-2510P

Summary

The README instructs creating the environment with Python 3.12 (conda create -n CutClaw python=3.12), but requirements.txt pins aubio, which does not support Python 3.10+. This makes pip install -r requirements.txt fail on a clean install following the official instructions.

Environment

  • OS: Windows 11
  • GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3060, driver 546.30, CUDA 12.3
  • Python: 3.12 (as specified in README)
  • Conda env created exactly per README instructions

Problem

aubio has no wheels for Python 3.12 and no maintained version supporting Python 3.10+:

  1. pip (source build): fails. After resolving Cython and MSVC build tools, the build still fails (encoding errors on a non-English Windows locale, then build issues).
  2. conda-forge: conda install -c conda-forge aubio cannot solve — the newest aubio package on conda-forge only supports up to Python 3.9:
