Resolving Dependency & Installation Issues
=============================================
On some platforms, there may not be binary packages available for all dependencies, and
``pip`` installation may fail with an error message. Most often, this is simply due to
the ``netifaces`` package not having a pre-compiled package available via ``pip``.
Usually, this can be resolved by simply installing ``netifaces`` via the system package
manager:
.. code::
# Debian / Ubuntu / Derivatives
sudo apt install python3-netifaces

Fedora
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
On Fedora, ``pip`` installation may fail with an error message, since the ``netifaces``
package cannot be installed natively via ``pip``. This can be resolved by installing
the ``python3-netifaces`` package via ``dnf`` first:
.. code::
sudo dnf install python3-netifaces
Alternatively, you can install basic development packages, which will allow
``pip`` to install any required packages from source:
