[Bug]: Crash of 2023.2.2 on Linux. Missing dependency "distro"?
PsychoPy Version
2023.2.2
What OS are your PsychoPy running on?
Linux-based systems
Bug Description
After starting a fresh install of 2023.2.2 in a conda environment on Debian Linux, we observed silent crashes few seconds after removing on the welcome screen. The crash trace showed this line, and indeed, after installing the distro package the application was running.
I cannot find distro in the install dependencies.
Expected Behaviour
The pip installation should install all PyPI packages required to run the basic functionality of psychopy.
Steps to Reproduce
- conda create -n psychopy python=3.10
- conda activate psychopy
- (optional, required on our system) conda install -c conda-forge gcc_linux_64 libstdcxx-ng==13.2
- pip install psychopy
- psychopy # ...observe crash after a few clicks
- pip install distro
- psychopy # ... works fine
