edgetpu: Error with Ubuntu 20.04 / Support for Python 3.8

I was trying to build a Docker image based on Ubuntu 20.04 and it failed. I think this is because Ubuntu uses Python 3.8 but python3-edgetpu only support up to Python 3.7.

Is support for 3.8 planned? I rolled back to an earlier version of Ubuntu for now.

This was the error from apt-get: python3-edgetpu : Depends: python3 (< 3.8) but 3.8.2-0ubuntu2 is to be installed

@Fonta88 Sorry, I just realized I missed typed above, you should be doing this:

python3.7 -m pip install https://dl.google.com/coral/edgetpu_api/edgetpu-2.14.0-py3-none-any.whl

Hi guys, still not released yet, but you guys can try downloading this: edgetpu-2.14.1-py3-none-any.zip

@ibrewster The build rules just doesn’t have a .so for python3.8, we are still inverstigating tflite_runtime api, but this should do for the edgetpu api in the mean time.

Thanks @Namburger, it works!

Thanks @Namburger !! Also worth nothing, looks like TFLite compiler and what-not are only on 3.7, so probably best to wait for that to move to 3.8 first. https://www.tensorflow.org/lite/guide/python
