Getting requirements to build wheel ... error

[jurgen178]

Hi, when cloning and running the install cmd 'pip install -r requirements.txt', I get an error to build 'wheel'.
Pulled the latest on main and have Python 3.13.1 installed.
Any idea what I'm missing? Thanks!
The full output for context is here:

@jurgen178 Hi, do you have solve this problem?
This issue arises from using an incompatible Python version. The Pillow package supports specific Python versions, which are detailed in the documentation: https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation/python-support.html . Please You should change to a compatible Python version.

I was able to solve this problem and can provide access to a custom repository.
Please email abhishek.shivakumar@gmail with a relevant subject for more info.

@zhuyanxi , as I wrote in my initial comment, I used the latest released Python 3.13.1 when I ran it for the first time.
Thanks for providing the compatibility table, which suggests using 3.12
