cannot import name collections_abc / ProbeBasic new installation failes

On a fresh install (2.8.2.11) from the updated Debian 10 Buster PREEMPT-RT ISO installation of the Probe Basic v0.x.x packaged failes with the error cannot import name collections_abc.
The failure is the same from version v0.3.4 until 0.4.0,

Find attached a screenshot and the relevant report files.

Any ideas?

The issue is solved - at least for my installation:

• pip show six

• pip install -U six

Even the version did not change, after the installation ProbeBasic is working again (testet with v0.4.0)

I've been having the same issue.

How did you solve it exactly?. Don't really understand your message, completely new to Linux, just finished installing it 1 hour ago.

Thanks!

Hi,

try to follow these steps:

1. open a shell window or do it directly on the console (thats what windows calls a "command prompt")
2. just type pip -V
3. you should get a reply like "pip 18.1 from /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip (python 2.7"
   That shows you , the pip command is available
4. type pip show six - the output should be like I mentioned in my 2nd post
5. type pip install -U six - this should be install/reinstall the missing/wrong libraries
6. start linuxcnc again

That did it, everything works now!.

Thanks a million Robert!
Now I just have to be patient till the Mesa cards arrive and I can start building the controller
