Bug Report: Installation Failure of vcrpy>=5.0.0 in Conda Environment

[cprogiopoulos]

Dear vcrpy Developers,

I am writing to report an issue encountered during the installation of the vcrpy package (version >=5.0.0) within a Conda environment. Despite following standard procedures for environment setup and package installation, the installation process fails with the following error:

`pip install vcrpy>=5.0.0 error: subprocess-exited-with-error

This error persists despite having created a new Conda environment with all packages fully upgraded and the PYTHONIOENCODING environment variable set to UTF-8.

Steps to Reproduce:

Create a new Conda environment: conda create -n my_env python=3.11 Activate the environment: conda activate my_env Upgrade pip and setuptools: pip install --upgrade pip setuptools Attempt to install vcrpy: pip install vcrpy>=5.0.0 Environment Details:

Operating System: Windows 10 x64 Conda Version: 24.1.2 Python Version: 3.11.8 PYTHONIOENCODING: UTF-8 This issue prevents the successful installation of the vcrpy package within Conda environments. Your attention to this matter and any assistance in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Please let me know if any additional information is required.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I recently bumped into a similar issue. I set PYTHONUTF8=1 in my Windows PowerShell with this command: [System.Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('PYTHONUTF8', '1', 'User'). It works fine for me now.
