I just redid my steps, and took a few notes:
This is on a "Clean reinstalled Debian 11" running in VirtualBox (Vbox)
1: Install git + pip
sudo apt install git python3-pip
2: Get tinysa-saver from Erik's git.
git clone https://github.com/erikkaashoek/tinysa-saver
3: In the file Calibration.py , find all ocurrences of np.complex( , and replace with complex(??
You can use an editor , or the sed command below.
cd tinysa-saver/
cd TinySASaver/
You can skip all the grep commands below , they were just for "proff".
Check for #of occurences (we have 21)
deb11-vb:~/tinysa-saver/TinySASaver$ grep "np.complex(" Calibration.py? | wc
???? 21???? 183??? 1439
*** This is the important comand: Replace all occurences of np.complex( with complex(??? ... In the file Calibration.py
deb11-vb:~/tinysa-saver/TinySASaver$ sed -i 's/np.complex(/complex(/g' Calibration.py
No more np.complex( in the file
deb11-vb:~/tinysa-saver/TinySASaver$ grep "np.complex(" Calibration.py? | wc
????? 0?????? 0?????? 0
But 21 occurences of complex( in the file? .... seems good to me.
deb11-vb:~/tinysa-saver/TinySASaver$ grep "complex(" Calibration.py? | wc
???? 21???? 183??? 1376
Return back to the top-level dir.
cd ..
Install the program with pip
python3 -m pip install .
The program is now installed in ~/.local/bin
But i still got an error , when trying to start the program:
deb11-vb:~/.local/bin$ ./TinySASaver

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, wayland-egl, wayland, wayland-xcomposite-egl, wayland-xcomposite-glx, webgl, xcb.
Aborted
This thread gave me a solution:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59809703/could-not-load-the-qt-platform-plugin-xcb-in-even-though-it-was-found
I then installed this
sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5
And now trying again:
deb11-vb:~/.local/bin$ ./TinySASaver
It started
During the process i alsi installed this one (before doing the : sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5) but it didn't work after that install, and i doubt it's needed to do the below.
sudo apt-get install libxcb-xinerama0
