win 64 powershell execution problem

[JHA-TYPE]

Hi fontbakery community,

thanks for this toolset. It helps really to improve the quality of fonts for independent type foundaries. I use fontbakery and its check system on every release I do, or did. Now, I run into problems to execute the code. The problems started, as I updated to PowerShell 7 x64, even going back to the old version or using CMD didn't work. I tested on two different computers, with now the same result. I work with python 3.7 and updated fontbakery to 0.8.10. Do you have a clue, what might be the cause of this.

Thanks for your valuable time

Jan

Hi,

I installed linux wsl2 and installed fontbakery there. This works.

Best Jan

How did you install fontbakery? This smells like a partial update problem or something else with the installation running awry. I recommend using https://github.com/pypa/pipx to install and update Python applications
