Same issue here. Have you found any solutions?

Facing the same issue here.

I've tried to install dependencies in local environment. The problem seems to stem from pygame, which has deprecated license classifiers. The error message indicates that the longintrepr.h file is not found, and the build process fails with exit code 1.

Attempted Solutions:

• Updated system dependencies, but the issue persists (see below)

 License classifiers are deprecated.

      hint: This error likely indicates that you need to install a library that provides "longintrepr.h" for `pygame@2.1.2`

Additional Information:

• A similar issue has been reported pygame/pygame/Issues#4476.
• The error suggests that a library providing longintrepr.h might be missing.

Could someone have an idea for resolving this issue?
