I broke poetry and have no idea how to reinstall it

[gamer_girl_2007_nah]

$ poetry <any command/-v/-h/etc>

/home/qwerty/.local/share/pypoetry/venv/bin/python: error while loading shared libraries: libpython3.10.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I suppose it happens because i have python 3.11.6 version, while poetry wants libpython3.10. So i tried to reinstall poetry, but unfortunately… i have no idea how it was installed.

pip freeze gives no positive result, pacman -Qqe as well…

So, how to fix my poetry?

P.S. poetry self update not working

Hi @gamer_girl_2007_nah,

Please provide the output for:

pamac search --installed poetry

and:

pamac search --installed python | grep --ignore-case 'poetry'

[gamer_girl_2007_nah]

@Mirdarthos

pamac search --installed python | grep --ignore-case 'poetry'

both empty

[Mirdarthos]

If both return empty, then you didn’t install it with pamac. Please post the output of:

pip list

and

pipenv lock -r

and

conda list

and

ls -l ~/.local/share/pypoetry

[megavolt]

pamac reinstall python-poetry

@gamer_girl_2007_nah

/home/qwerty/.local/share/pypoetry/venv/bin/python: error while loading shared libraries: libpython3.10.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It is a virtual environment, which hasn’t been updated.

python -m venv --upgrade /home/qwerty/.local/share/pypoetry/venv

[Mirdarthos]

Won’t work as it’s not installed with pamac:

both empty

@megavolt

python -m venv --upgrade /home/qwerty/.local/share/pypoetry/venv

Unable to symlink '/usr/bin/python' to '/home/qwerty/.local/share/pypoetry/venv/bin/python'

now its

$ poetry

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/qwerty/.local/bin/poetry", line 5, in <module>
    from poetry.console.application import main
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'poetry'

[megavolt]

No idea then, how you installed it. But a folder venv indicates that python-venv was used.

[Mirdarthos]

I’m now thinking:

pipx install poetry

From:

Introduction | Documentation | Poetry - Python dependency management and...

Note: I have no idea if this will work or if it’ll beak something, so do at your own risk.

[gamer_girl_2007_nah]

@Mirdarthos

pipx install poetry

-bash: pipx: command not found

i really have no clue how my poetry was installed

[gamer_girl_2007_nah]

perhaps i need a solution how to delete it now…
to reinstall properly

[Mirdarthos]

That’s actually what I was also thinking…

What is the output of

which poetry

[gamer_girl_2007_nah]

/home/qwerty/.local/bin/poetry

[Mirdarthos]

@gamer_girl_2007_nah

/home/qwerty/.local/bin/

OK. I think delete it:

mv /home/qwerty/.local/bin/poetry /home/qwerty/.local/bin/poetry.backup

And then reinstall it, properly this time:

pamac install python-poetry

…and hope for good news.

[gamer_girl_2007_nah]

Yay! Now its working, thanks

[Mirdarthos]

Then you can safely remove the backed up file:

rm /home/qwerty/.local/bin/poetry.backup

I’m glad it worked. Next time, be more careful of how you do something.
