Issue: ImportError and RuntimeError in openseespy on Linux

[ConvogliTuoni]

I am experiencing an issue trying to install OpenSeesPy on my Raspberry Pi running a 64-bit OS (ARM64 architecture). I followed the instructions from the repository but encountered problems during the installation process.

Here are the steps I followed:

I installed the library as reported on : python3 -m pip install openseespy

After installation, I tried importing the library in my Python script as follows: import openseespy.opensees as ops

However, I encountered the following error:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)

     16 elif sys.platform.startswith('win'):
     18     try:

RuntimeError: Failed to import openseespy on Linux.

What I’ve Tried:

• Reinstalling openseespy and openseespylinux.

• Ensuring the correct dependencies are installed.

• Verifying the system’s LD_LIBRARY_PATH for missing library references.

Could anyone assist with resolving this issue?

Thank you!
