python3 adafruit_rgb_display library BORKed?? Moderators: adafruit_support_bill, adafruit

Starting about ten days ago, a python3 script started throwing Segmentation faults. After installing the faulthandler, I found that the following line was throwing the fault:

Code: Select all | TOGGLE FULL SIZE

import adafruit_rgb_display.ili9341 as ili9341

A similar line causes the Segmentation fault:

Code: Select all | TOGGLE FULL SIZE

import adafruit_rgb_display.st7789 as st7789


I tried reinstalling the adafruit_circuitpython_rgb_display library, even with --force-install, but the same Segmentation Fault is being thrown.

So, what else can I try? Or, is the library just borked?

Thanks for a quick reply...

command used for reinstall was:

Code: Select all | TOGGLE FULL SIZE

sudo pip3 install --force-reinstall adafruit_circuitpython_rgb_display

Looks like the fault is actually being thrown way down in numpy/numeric.py. Not sure why...

Resolved the situation by pulling these test programs into an environment. Then installed local copies of numpy, plus adafruit_circuitpython_rgb_display, pillow, etc. into that environment.

Still getting used to the oddnesses of Python.

Anyway, looks like we are good to go.
