Does someone else have this problem ?
I've tried installing SDL2 with homebrew, and I got another error but It still don't want to build it. So yeah there is bug when building it.
This looks like it didn't download the wheel for pygame 2.0.0 from pip so it tries to build from source. I assume the source build didn't work because some/all of the dependencies were missing.
This looks like it didn't download the wheel for pygame 2.0.0 from pip so it tries to build from source. I assume the source build didn't work because some/all of the dependencies were missing.
I wonder if the command:
sudo pip3.9 install pygame
doesn't work and you actually just need:
sudo pip3 install pygame
?
Yeah actually with Big Sur, Apple has moved some dependencies on other locations so yeah building from source doesn't work. I tried both with pip3 and pip3.9
pip looks for a macosx_11 wheel and doesn't try the macosx_10_9 wheel even though it should. So for now, until the bug in pip is fixed it looks like the easiest solution is to manually download the correct 10_9 wheel for your platform and rename it to 11.
Also can't install on MacBook Pro M1 with Python 3.9.1

@Ropuh@Endogen @brittlizprice so do any of you actually have SDL2 installed?
I assume you do not, and the problem is just that there are no pre-built binary wheels for macos 11 on ARM.
Is there a pre-built SDL2 installer for mac os 11 on ARM? Do the downloads on libSDL.org work on ARM?
In the worst case, you have to compile SDL2 from source.
Maybe we could draft one of you into installing SDL2 and building a wheel from source...
I have downloaded the latest version of sdl (2.0.14) using the command : brew install sdl2 sdl2_gfx sdl2_image sdl2_mixer sdl2_net sdl2_ttf
but I am still facing the same issue on my M1 MacBook Air. @robertpfeiffer how do we go about building the wheel from source?
First make sure pip is on the latest version.
Then try this command pip3 install https://github.com/pygame/pygame
This is going to make pip install the latest version from github, which is a few commits ahead of v2.0.1
The reason I’m suggesting that, rather than installing 2.0.1, is just to eliminate any pip related errors that happen while finding the right Mac wheels. That command will force pip to build pygame from source, and if your dependencies are all right, it’s gonna hopefully work :)
@rajatyagi I would try to find where sdl2-config is installed on your system and add that to $PATH, and barring that, find out where brew installed the SDL2 libraries and header files and report back here.
Based on what I know about homebrew (and I want to make it clear, I do not have an M1 mac or access to privileged information, all this is based on 5 minutes of googling), sdl2-config might be installed into /opt/homebrew/bin, but sdl2 can be installed on arm64 mac os with homebrew: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/HEAD/Formula/sdl2.rb
So what you probably need to do is:
make sure that you installed python/pip via the same method as SDL
find where your install has put SDL2-config, add that location to your PATH if necessary like so: `export PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin:$PATH"
install pygame via pip (be sure to use the right python install here, if you got SDL via macports or brew, use the python from macports or brew to install pygame)
report back here
I wouldn't want to hardcode /opt/homebrew/bin inside setup.py case python is installed in /Library/Frameworks or /usr/local or /opt/ports
The issue is resolved. @robertpfeiffer you were right, I just followed the directions given by you
I found the SDL2-config file at: /usr/local/bin/sdl2-config .
I added it to my path by: export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin/sdl2-config
finally I linked my python 3.9 with Homebrew using: brew link [email protected]
then used the pip command to install pygame: pip3 install pygame
Thanks for all the help!!
@rajatyagi It should be the directory, not the program itself. Are you telling me /usr/local/bin was not part of $PATH already on mac os 11? Or did brew link [email protected] link python into /usr/local so you invoked the right pip?
In any case, if you get it to install with pip on one mac, you can run this:
to get a .whl file in the dist/ directory that can be installed on another mac (with the same OS and CPU arch) with pip.
Before more people post about their homebrew setup: This is not a homebrew/macports/autoconf support forum. As far as I can tell, the arm64 mac os currently has no binary wheel support, but that is a different issue from this one that was posted about x86.
We will may to open another issue for automatically binary wheels on mac os 11 with arm64 (Can we cross-compile? Does the CI run mac os?), but it seems to me that there is no problem actually compiling pygame if you have set up your system right.
I got this error. Should I uninstall & reinstall pip and pygame? Trying to install the homebrew (cannot unpack error) and I also tried Robert's suggestion and got an out of range error.
@brittlizprice In order to compile pygame, you need to install sdl2. You do not need to "reinstall pip" (I am probably misreading this. You can just use pip to upgrade pip. I do not think you need to uninstall and reinstall pygame via pip either). Right now, there are no binary pip wheels for pygame in arm64 mac os 11, so you have to compile your own sdl2 in order to compile pygame. Since there are no binary wheels for pygame yet, pip is attempting to compile pygame, but doesn't find the development files for SDL2.
You can either download the source from libSDL2.org, or install via homebrew. Macports and fink might also work, I don't know. I haven't used a mac in a decade. Compilation and installation of SDL2 development files needs to be done before you run pip install pygame.
In any case, the original bug reported here has been resolved. This is not a mac OS help forum, but a bug tracker.
I have created an issue with a task list for the mac os build situation.
@robertpfeiffer I know it's not a macOS help forum, I wasn't entirely sure about how the
solution worked. I don't use terminal commands often. You don't have to be a jerk about it because you didn't get a DTK in June and make the transition earlier. Looking below clearly the issue isn't resolved. Users shouldn't have to go through this much trouble to use a plugin. For now I'll use something else.

Works on my machine as well (MacBook Pro M1).
Adding sdl2 to the path was not required in my case, it worked out of the box after using brew to install sdl2.
However I still got an error installing pygame which was fixed by brew reinstall freetype pkg-config
Hello everybody, despite all of your help I couldn't install pygame. Maybe the reason is that my version of python is from mini forge and miniconda ? I don't know really since it usually doesn't cause problems. I can add that the sdl2-config file was not un /usr/local/bin but in something like /opt/homebrew/Cellar/..
@rajatyagi It should be the directory, not the program itself. Are you telling me /usr/local/bin was not part of $PATH already on mac os 11? Or did brew link [email protected] link python into /usr/local so you invoked the right pip?

This looks like it didn't download the wheel for pygame 2.0.0 from pip so it tries to build from source. I assume the source build didn't work because some/all of the dependencies were missing.
I wonder if the command:

# # MyreMylar commented at 2020-11-21 14:30:31
looks like this is a bug with pip and mac wheels, see:
numpy/numpy#17784 and pypa/packaging#319
pip looks for a
macosx_11wheel and doesn't try themacosx_10_9wheel even though it should. So for now, until the bug in pip is fixed it looks like the easiest solution is to manually download the correct 10_9 wheel for your platform and rename it to 11.Link:
https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/94/da/60c4cfa05c51928bbc7954fc33750e0ae16dd3794e9c4b797ff7b051faf8/pygame-2.0.0-cp39-cp39-macosx_10_9_intel.whl
then rename to:
pygame-2.0.0-cp39-cp39-macosx_11_0_intel.whland try and manually install the wheel with:
pip install pygame-2.0.0-cp39-cp39-macosx_11_0_intel.whlfrom the directory with the wheel file in it. See if that works.

It sounds like this bug was fixed in the latest version of pip so I would make sure you update the version of pip you are using to 20.3.3.
# # illume commented at 2021-01-02 18:07:06
Cool! Good to know. Let's close this now then.
(feel free to comment here if the new pip is still not working, and we can open it again)

dist/directory that can be installed on another mac (with the same OS and CPU arch) with pip.Before more people post about their homebrew setup: This is not a homebrew/macports/autoconf support forum. As far as I can tell, the arm64 mac os currently has no binary wheel support, but that is a different issue from this one that was posted about x86.
We will may to open another issue for automatically binary wheels on mac os 11 with arm64 (Can we cross-compile? Does the CI run mac os?), but it seems to me that there is no problem actually compiling pygame if you have set up your system right.

I got this error. Should I uninstall & reinstall pip and pygame? Trying to install the homebrew (cannot unpack error) and I also tried Robert's suggestion and got an out of range error.

@brittlizprice In order to compile pygame, you need to install sdl2. You do not need to "reinstall pip" (I am probably misreading this. You can just use pip to upgrade pip. I do not think you need to uninstall and reinstall pygame via pip either). Right now, there are no binary pip wheels for pygame in arm64 mac os 11, so you have to compile your own sdl2 in order to compile pygame. Since there are no binary wheels for pygame yet, pip is attempting to compile pygame, but doesn't find the development files for SDL2.
You can either download the source from libSDL2.org, or install via homebrew. Macports and fink might also work, I don't know. I haven't used a mac in a decade. Compilation and installation of SDL2 development files needs to be done before you run
pip install pygame.In any case, the original bug reported here has been resolved. This is not a mac OS help forum, but a bug tracker.
I have created an issue with a task list for the mac os build situation.

@robertpfeiffer I know it's not a macOS help forum, I wasn't entirely sure about how the
solution worked. I don't use terminal commands often. You don't have to be a jerk about it because you didn't get a DTK in June and make the transition earlier. Looking below clearly the issue isn't resolved. Users shouldn't have to go through this much trouble to use a plugin. For now I'll use something else.

Works on my machine as well (MacBook Pro M1).
Adding sdl2 to the path was not required in my case, it worked out of the box after using brew to install sdl2.
However I still got an error installing pygame which was fixed by
brew reinstall freetype pkg-config# # ryanrudes commented at 2021-03-04 16:21:32
Running
brew reinstall freetype pkg-configworked for me, too# # Maxlanglet commented at 2021-03-04 19:53:31
Hello everybody, despite all of your help I couldn't install pygame. Maybe the reason is that my version of python is from mini forge and miniconda ? I don't know really since it usually doesn't cause problems. I can add that the sdl2-config file was not un /usr/local/bin but in something like /opt/homebrew/Cellar/..

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin/sdl2-config
pip3 install pygame
I only used these two commands
It really works!
Thanks for the help!
