From f70120b0b99354785c5d5c9fda91565ad32ec31f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Heiser Date: Wed, 22 Oct 2025 09:34:09 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] [fix] Installation Script install fails (msgspec) (#5353) Since #5280 has been merged, msgspec, like yaml, is a fixed part of the SearXNG *settings framework* and therefore, like yaml, must be installed in the virtual environment before installing SearXNG (``searx``). The actual reason is that in SearXNG we store settings in the configuration that are required for the installation of the ``searx`` package. This means that these settings (from settings.yml) are read in during the installation, and all the necessary tools for this (pyyaml, msgspec, setuptools, etc.) must be installed beforehand (chicken or the egg dilemma).
