Trying to build Tinypilot updated from GIT

[kniven]

Hi. I am (still) trying to build pypilot on my Raspberry pi Zero (standard version). It works perfectly using the image (tinypilot_2021_11_16.img.xz), but when downloading and copying the latest stable code from github, and following the instructions in (https://github.com/pypilot/workbook/wiki...r-the-hood), I get the following output.... 

Any Ideas of what I'm doing wrong?
Best regards, Leif

Following the 'Upgrading tinypilot remotely' procedure from an openplotter raspberry does allow me to compile. See attached document and try to copy the steps and compare output.

However, upon starting pypilot I'm having this issue. Looking into that now...

Code:

tc@pypilot:~$ cat /usr/local/bin/pypilot | grep requires
__requires__ = 'pypilot==0.36'

# new version all right!

tc@pypilot:~$ pypilot
autopilot start 458.637608
falling back to python nonblocking socket, will consume more cpu
cannot import name 'linebuffer'
pypilot failed to import required modules.  Did you forget to run sudo python3 setup.py install?
tc@pypilot:~$

[ironman]

Got rid of that 'cannot import name linebuffer' message. I think what did the trick was you have to run pypilot.build twice (as in: two times!) and then do the reboot. There's a comment in that script that suggests this, something to do with swig. I adapted the workbook accordingly for now, but I'd like to hear when that has been solved.

It was supposed to be fixed:

I have seen this on raspberry in the past but not recently, so I think there it was indeed solved. But now it was on tinycore.

Ok. I finally figured out what was my problem...
I used a windows PC to pull from GIT, and copied the files from there over to the PI zero...
Probably issues with special characters and line feed formats.

When using my Raspberry PI 400 instead, no issues at all. And my tinypilot now seems to be running successfully on version 0.36.
