Description
pynput does not support Wayland. Unfortunately, it took me a while to figure out why the RecorderService did not work.
I got the message: The extra packages required by manim_voiceover[recorder] are not installed ...
. This is a misleading error, since they were installed, but pynput did not load. Pynput did not load because it does not work on Wayland.
I would suggest adding something like this to the helper.py
at around line 162 in the error handling block:
if "failed to acquire X connection" in str(e):
raise ImportError(
f'Wayland is not supported!'
)
