Hi Rich,
Ok something weird going on there, you might like to reinstall python3
I just checked my default install and I have this...
timt@metoffice:~$ pip3 freeze|grep serial
pyserial==3.4
timt@metoffice:~$
You might like to try ...
sudo apt reinstall python3
to see if that fixes things.
cheers
Tim

Tim, Greg,
clean install of ubuntu mate 20.04.1 LTS Desktop, including dev tools.
ssh, no apache
this installs by default python3:
Python 3.8.5 (default, Jul 28 2020, 12:59:40)
[GCC 9.3.0] on linux
all updates were run prior to attempt with weewx. then followed
1. wget -qO - http://weewx.com/keys.html | sudo apt-key add -
2. wget -qO - http://weewx.com/apt/weewx.list | sudo tee
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/weewx.list
3. apt-get update
4. apt-get install weewx
where step 4 had the reported failures.
weewx : Depends: python-configobj (>= 4.5) but it is not installable
Depends: python-serial (>= 2.3) but it is not installable
looking at the installed python3 components, apt reports in part:
python3-configobj/focal,focal,now 5.0.6-4 all [installed,automatic]
BUT NO python3-serial !!
So, why is the installer complaining about python-configobj when ver
5.0.6-4 clearly is >= 4.5
And why is python3-serial missing from the standard python (and
apparently not installable) if it is required by weewx?
I'm a C and unix guy and know nothing about python....
