ERROR: Could not build wheels for insightface, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

[VirtualityDave]

Having spent a good deal of time on this, I'm at a loss.
I am wondering if the following warning in the console output is related:

      ############################
      # Package would be ignored #
      ############################
      Python recognizes 'insightface.thirdparty.face3d.mesh.cython' as an importable package[^1],
      but it is absent from setuptools' `packages` configuration.

      This leads to an ambiguous overall configuration. If you want to distribute this
      package, please make sure that 'insightface.thirdparty.face3d.mesh.cython' is explicitly added
      to the `packages` configuration field.

Visual Studio 2022 installation:

Python development: Enabled
Desktop development with C++: Enabled
Visual Studio extension development: Enabled

MSVC v143 - VS2022 C++ build tools (Latest): Installed
Windows 10 SDK (10.0.20348.0): Installed (I'm on Win10)

Python:

Python 3.10.11 (tags/v3.10.11:7d4cc5a, Apr  5 2023, 00:38:17) [MSC v.1929 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

After multiple failed attempts to install via ComfyUI Manager, I opted to install insightface manually via pip:

D:\Dev\StableDiffusion\ComfyUI_windows_portable>pip install insightface==0.7.3

Expected result:

insightface installs

Actual result:

I have same error

I think this might help https://github.com/Gourieff/sd-webui-reactor#insightfacebuild

[VirtualityDave]

I think this might help https://github.com/Gourieff/sd-webui-reactor#insightfacebuild

It helped a little - there were more missing installs. I managed to fix a couple, but am now stuck on this one: module 'cv2.gapi.wip.draw' has no attribute 'Text'

[probe2k]

For me, installing xorg-libxext and pillow-simd seems to fix the issue.

[VirtualityDave]

After I installed the pre-built insightfacebuild hngn97 recommended and things were still not working I gave up and decided to look at controlnets instead. Something during the setup process for controlnets fixed the insightface issues and I'm now up and running. Since controlnet seems to accidently set things up correctly for insightface, I'm guessing this indicates some sort of issue with the insightface setup so I'll leave the issue open.

On linux/ubuntu you need to have python dev installed, for example sudo apt install python3.10-dev, replace <<3.10 >> with your python version

winget install -e --id Microsoft.VCRedist.2015+.x64

winget install -e --id Microsoft.VisualStudio.2022.BuildTools --override "--wait --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.NativeDesktop --includeRecommended"

It's useful in my case.

This helps, thanks! I did installed Microsoft.VCRedist.2015 but still encountered this error. I guess I was missing the VS BuildTools, which is installed by the second 'winget' cmd. After both of them were installed, building wheels of InsightFace was successful.

I was getting a similar problem in Ubuntu 20.04:

gcc: fatal error: cannot execute ‘cc1plus’: execvp: No such file or directory
      compilation terminated.
      error: command '/usr/bin/gcc' failed with exit code 1
      [end of output]
  
  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
  ERROR: Failed building wheel for insightface

ERROR: Could not build wheels for insightface, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

The solution was to install g++ with sudo apt-get install g++

For people using Amazon SageMaker, I ran this line (credit to ChatGPT):

apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev libffi-dev python3-dev -y
