I've installed all dependencies, including libcairo. After installation lenovo_fix service runs, but i'm not sure, that it works correctly.

Could you help me with it?

Thank you very much.

I also received this error. It looks like the service still may be working but I too wanted to know what was wrong. When I run the install script again I get this output:

$ sudo ./lenovo-throttling-fix/install.sh

Making me think that it may be working fine, but getting some confirmation would be nice.

I'm having this same issue, with the same errors, on Artix runit, difference being your solutions do not work. I've looked through the other closed issues and since this one is still open didn't want to create a new one with the same title. The build fails on ERROR: Could not build wheels for PyGObject which use PEP 517 and cannot be installed directly and I've tried installing everything, modifying the install script, installing with the no pep517 argument and other basic things.

[LinuxOnTheDesktop]

Same problem - Could not build wheels for pycairo which use PEP 517 and cannot be installed directly - on Linux Mint 20.2; and/but the installation fails. Here are some details.

Installing two packages that are, indeed, mentioned in the README as prerequisites seemed to get me a little further. I installed those packages thusly:

sudo apt-get install python3-dev
sudo apt install libgirepository1.0-dev

Yet, a subsequent run of the install script produced this: 'Package py3cairo was not found in the pkg-config search path.'

Goodness, Python installations are a pain.

[LinuxOnTheDesktop]

I add that I find that version 0.9.2, as against the latest git version, installs and runs without incident.

Solved the PyGObject error with this on arch - sudo pacman -S gobject-introspection

[LinuxOnTheDesktop]

@az0mb13,

thanks. However, I find that, on Mint, gobject-introspection was installed (via apt) already.
