Description
Installing the new beets 2.0 and the current version of pyacoustid on a Linux system with Python 3.7, beet import
fails with
** error loading plugin chroma:
Traceback (most recent call last):

return ctypes.CDLL(name, winmode=0)
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'winmode'
The winmode argument was added in Python 3.8, while beets still supports 3.7.
Trying things to get it to work on 3.7 again I circumvented _load_library
completely (just add return None
as the first line) and it still identifies files just fine. I'm not sure if _load_library
is needed on some Linux systems or why it works here without, but it would be nice if 3.7 compatibility could be restored at least for Linux or the Readme updated for the new requirements.
