I'm trying to install berkleybd for python on windows but I get the following error:

pip install berkeleydb
Collecting berkeleydb
  Downloading berkeleydb-18.1.11.tar.gz (174 kB)
  Installing build dependencies ... done
  Getting requirements to build wheel ... error
  error: subprocess-exited-with-error

  × Getting requirements to build wheel did not run successfully.
  │ exit code: 1
  ╰─> [3 lines of output]

      MS Windows is unsupported. I you need it, please let me know!

      [end of output]

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
error: subprocess-exited-with-error

× Getting requirements to build wheel did not run successfully.
│ exit code: 1
╰─> See above for output.

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

I'm using python 3.13.0 and pip 24.3.1 installing on windows 11

I tried clearing the pip cache and I also tried directing pip to a local version of berkeleydb but neither helped.

    Welcome to Stack Overflow. I think MS Windows is unsupported. I you need it, please let me know! pretty much says what your issue is. Try contacting the author/maintainer. Commented Nov 20, 2024 at 3:06
  • I didn't see anyone else running into this issue but it seems like it may be a recent change to berkeleydb. Apparently in version 18.1.9 they removed support for windows. Commented Nov 20, 2024 at 23:28
