[viswanath27]

OSError: cannot load library 'gobject-2.0-0': dlopen(gobject-2.0-0, 0x0002): tried: '/gobject-2.0-0' (no such file), '/opt/homebrew/bin/gobject-2.0-0' (no such file), 'gobject-2.0-0' (no such file), '/System/Volumes/Preboot/Cryptexes/OSgobject-2.0-0' (no such file), '/Users/viswanathbarenkala/anaconda3/envs/gptresearcher/bin/../lib/gobject-2.0-0' (no such file), '/usr/lib/gobject-2.0-0' (no such file, not in dyld cache), 'gobject-2.0-0' (no such file), '/usr/local/lib/gobject-2.0-0' (no such file), '/usr/lib/gobject-2.0-0' (no such file, not in dyld cache). Additionally, ctypes.util.find_library() did not manage to locate a library called 'gobject-2.0-0'

seem above is the issue in my mac.

I also have corrected the newspaper folder and file name as this is conflicting with the package name in python, post which this error is showing up

Hi @assafelovic
Shall I update the installation section in documentation to inform Mac users to install following libraries before they start using the tool?

• gobject-introspection
• pango

This would resolve following issues
#328
#314 for windows

[kairoswealth]

brew install glib
brew install pango

Solved it for me

@satishjasthi that would be great! Can you please update it here: https://github.com/assafelovic/gpt-researcher/blob/master/docs/docs/gpt-researcher/troubleshooting.md

[satishjasthi]

Ya sure
@assafelovic , I have updated troubleshooting documentation with these changes and submitted PR

Hey everyone, also updating that refined code to import problematic libraries so that it doesn't crash: 5f035b5

Lmk if this resolves for you

It fixed this issue for me both on Win 10 Pro and Replit
( BTW GPT-Researcher still doesn't work on Repit, so a template would be appreciated! :) )
