When importing other Adafruit components, I observed this error:
This is happening because I did not have the "libgpiod Python bindings" (installable with
pip install gpiod
) and the import here fails:Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice/adafruit_bus_device/spi_device.py
Line 20 in 519bf36
Causing this line to fail:
Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice/adafruit_bus_device/spi_device.py
Line 76 in 519bf36
This started happening with adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Typing#42 as it introduced importing
adafruit_bus_device.spi_device.SPIDevice
.
