Environment

installed python via brew
used pipx to install/upgrade pytr
cookies were already deleted

• OS: macOS
• pytr version: 0.48

Additional context
The playwright dependency was installed but not in the cache-folder.
After running

playwright install  

it worked, but not out of the box, which should be the intended behaviour or did I do something wrong with my python installation?

I have the same issue in MacOS. @rinkmi1 : How did you run "playwright install"? I do not find it. Do I need to install anything in addition to pytr via pipx?

Update: I installed playwright via pipx: "pipx install playwright", and then run "playwright install chromium". Now pytr is working again!

[rinkmi1]

It should be done automatically. I installed it with brew. Both doesnt work.

I just called install playwright. This works but the Cache path seems Not to be the Right One.

[RealCLanger]

I'm addressing this in #339. pytr will now call "playwright install chromium" when playwright fails for the first time. Hopefully this works in all or at least most cases.

[RealCLanger]

#339 is merged, so I'm closing this issue. Please report testing reports/problems here nevertheless.
