This workaround is not working for me.

OK. Had to upgrade my pip3 and could then manually download the whl file and performed the upgrade.

I have just had this on a RPi Zero. (OS and not RPi4 related then...) :

SO, is this a package build problem in v2.1.2 ?

Setting up a clean install on a RPI 0 based on 2021-01-11-raspios-buster-armhf-lite.zip. Ran into this issue running sudo pip3 install results. Just being new, I was happy that @ner0tic 's work-around works like a charm, thanks!

For me
pip install -U pip
worked fine (on a virtual env)

[jeremyehack]

Also had this issue on a Raspberry pi 3b+ running 5.10.17-v7+

The 2.1.2 build was failing so I specified 2.1.1. in my requirements.txt and the pi installed it just fine. Seems like an issue with the setup.py file for this version. Not sure what about the issue is specific to the pi OS.

Same here. 2.1.1 was successfully installed while 2.1.2 gave the same errors as people higher in the thread was having

[AetherUnbound]

It seems like this is also showing up on the Apple M1 computers since that's also ARM-based. The manylinux wheel appears to have the setup.py file present for v2.1.2.

Installation still fails on a raspberry pi:

@sdispater
I created a small python application that allows you to create home automation rules in python.
I've shared it, so other people can use it too and don't have to start from scratch.
However 95% of my support questions in the forum have been about the failing installation of pendulum and the real frustrating part is not the amount of cries for help but that I can't properly help since the workarounds above work for some people and for some they just fail.

Could you please fix the setup issues?
A simple fix could be to just include a setup.py until it's clear why the installation is failing.
