## How can I fix the error that `manimpango/cmanimpango.c` could not be found when trying to install Manim?

This occasionally happens when your system has to build a wheel for
[ManimPango](https://github.com/ManimCommunity/ManimPango) locally because there
is no compatible version for your architecture available on PyPI.

Very often, the problem is resolved by installing Cython (e.g., via
`pip3 install Cython`) and then trying to reinstall Manim. If this
does not fix it:

- Make sure that you have installed all build dependencies mentioned
in [ManimPango's README](https://github.com/ManimCommunity/ManimPango),
- and if you still run into troubles after that, please reach out to
us as described in the {doc}`Getting Help FAQs </faq/help>`.
