ImportError: The 'enchant' C library was not found. Please install it via your OS package manager, or use a pre-built binary wheel from PyPI
Question:
The question is why I see the error message in the title when trying to import enchant. I am using Win64.
Answers:
I found the answer in this GitHub page.
In a nutshell, they have not shipped a wheel for the win_amd64 platform yet.
On Ubuntu, run sudo apt-get install libenchant1c2a
For me, the problem I ran into was that I had an old version of pip. I installed the latest version and was able to download the pyenchant library.
pip install -U pip
For amazon ubuntu instance use.
yum install enchant
and then
pip install pyenchant
On Windows x64 I’ve solved this problem as follows:
- Click link https://pypi.org/project/pyenchant/#files and download pyenchant-2.0.0.win32.exe
- Launch it and while installing it using the installation wizard you must specify your python interpreter location which in my case is:
C:UsersAsusAppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython36python.exe
Important:İf you use python32 interpreter you must specify this location:
C:UsersAsusAppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython36-32python.exe
if you use python 3.5 interpreter version your location may be like this:
C:UsersAsusAppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython35python.exe
and finish the installation. Pip commands will work now for other dependency packages.
Resolved: On Win7-64 I ran
pip3 install pyenchant==1.6.6
which seems to be the latest version of PyEnchant that still shipped with Win-64 binaries. Newer versions did not install for me, but this one did.
On MacOS, you can install it via brew:
brew install enchant
pip install pyenchant
I have fix the bugs on the colab.
!apt update
!apt install enchant –fix-missing
After fixing the missing files, you could run the enchant.
To run with docker on AWS:
- With
apt-get:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install enchant-2
- With
apt:
sudo apt update
sudo apt -y install enchant-2
Thank you
