installing home assistant problem

[Richard_Balogh]

Hi!
ill try install homeassistant on orange pi zero 512MB, but i have a problem.
i have download 
Armbian_22.08_Jammy_rolling_Sid server_Kernel_5.19.y_359M_Sep.24,2022 
https://redirect.armbian.com/region/EU/orangepizero/Sid_edge
and installed armbian like
https://www.albertogonzalez.net/how-to-install-armbian-debian-on-an-orange-pi-zero
 i dont know is it correct or not, i think Kernel_5.19 is better than 5.15?

      If you are using an outdated pip version, it is possible a prebuilt wheel is available for this package but pip is not able to install from it. Installing from the wheel would avoid the need for a Rust compiler.

      To update pip, run:

          pip install --upgrade pip

      If you did intend to build this package from source, try installing a Rust compiler from your system package manager and ensure it is on the PATH during installation. Alternatively, rustup (available at https://rustup.rs) is the recommended way to download and update the Rust compiler toolchain.

      This package requires Rust >=1.41.0.

i need your help.
Thx!

I suggest to to try with both supported kernel (current branch) and supported userspace (Bullseye) rather than experimental stuff.

i have changed to Armbian_22.08_Jammy_Kernel_5.15.y_296Mb_Sep.24,2022 but the problem is same.

Welcome to Rust!

This will download and install the official compiler for the Rust
programming language, and its package manager, Cargo.

Rustup metadata and toolchains will be installed into the Rustup
home directory, located at:

  /home/hass/.rustup

This can be modified with the RUSTUP_HOME environment variable.

The Cargo home directory is located at:

  /home/hass/.cargo

This can be modified with the CARGO_HOME environment variable.

The cargo, rustc, rustup and other commands will be added to
Cargo's bin directory, located at:

  /home/hass/.cargo/bin

This path will then be added to your PATH environment variable by
modifying the profile files located at:

  /home/hass/.profile
  /home/hass/.bashrc
  /home/hass/.zshenv

You can uninstall at any time with rustup self uninstall and
these changes will be reverted.

Current installation options:


   default host triple: armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf
     default toolchain: stable (default)
               profile: default

I have exactly the same problem... No way to install cryptography package... Any help ? Thank you.

No way to install cryptography package...

 

Upon meditating over broken builds for quite some time, here is how to build HA on an SBC with a very limited amount of RAM:

• Force Python build system to utilise unlimited user-supplied $TEMPDIR, rather than system-managed which is too small and zram-based
• It's unfair, but the builder is expected to RTFM installation notes for all the dependencies. That's right, OS-packaged rustc cannot be used, and it has to be a rustup
• I am stuck with `NumPy` installation. Whatever I do, the build OOMs by exhausting small swap file with 4x instances of cc1 compiler, running in parallel. My take is even if I manage to build HA, the deployment wouldn't be sustainable because of inability to upgrade it frequently
• TODO: explore containerised deployment

 

EDIT: NumPy wanted a long list of dependencies. The install script has updated. Interestingly enough, with exception for `cryptography`, none of the failing dependencies are declared if I query `python -m pip show homeassistant`. Nested dependencies have to be learned the hard way.
