Hailo-apps install.sh can't detect hailort-5.3.0 wheel install

Having just set up a virtualenv and installed the latest Python wheel for hailort, the install.sh script still does not detect that this wheel is installed.

python3.13 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install ./hailort-5.3.0-cp313-cp313-linux_aarch64.whl

sudo ./install.sh --no-tappas-required

This fails with “Missing: HailoRT Python binding (.whl)”

Here it is a workaround:
Edit install.sh and comment these 3 lines (starting in 859):


# if [[ “$pyhailort_version” == “-1” ]]; then
#  missing_components+=(“HailoRT Python binding (.whl)”)
# fi

After installation is finished, enable venv and install the missing package:

> source setup_env.sh
> pip install ./hailort-5.3.0-cp313-cp313-linux_aarch64.whl

Hailo-apps support for 5.3 will be released very soon.

Thanks,

That’s great news.

I have installed hailo-apps couple times (5 3 0) ends with mixed results and weird folder structure :slight_smile: it’s not clearly saying how and where install hailort .whl. When I installed in .venv install.sh don’t see it. When installed in system --brak-system-packages, I can’t install it but later on can’t run any python scripts because of dependency errors. Definitely someone needs make straight instructions how to install everything :upside_down_face: :slightly_smiling_face: Like before “install hailo-10h-all” and sorted :ok_hand:

Hi @Pav1985 thanks for the feedback. For time being hailo-apps officially not support 5.3. When the support will be officially added the installation will be straight forward as usually.
Thanks,
