Installation fails (pympv error)

See original GitHub issue

I tried to install it with pip3 install castero and also via git, every time I get the following error:

Do you mind testing with the latest build (using the “manual installation” instructions)? There are some kinks to work out, but it replaces pympv with python-mpv, which may resolve your problem.

Closing this since I was never able to reproduce it and I don’t believe it’s related to castero. If anyone involved thinks it is, feel free to let me know.
