AS voice assistant - Home Assistant - cannot install faster-whisper
#1
Hi,
I have a new AS voice assistant, and am attempting to install it on Home Assistant (running on an 64 bit x86 under a bunch of Linux in virtualbox VM)

While attempting to install faster-whisper I continuously get installation errors, and faster whisper will not install. 

--------error log from HA---------
Logger: homeassistant.util.package
Source: util/package.py:152
First occurred: 5:15:01 PM (3 occurrences)
Last logged: 5:15:04 PM

Unable to install package wyoming-faster-whisper==1.0.1: × No solution found when resolving dependencies: ╰─▶ Because only the following versions of ctranslate2 are available: ctranslate2<=3.17.0 ctranslate2==3.17.1 ctranslate2==3.18.0 ctranslate2==3.19.0 ctranslate2==3.20.0 ctranslate2==3.21.0 ctranslate2==3.22.0 ctranslate2==3.23.0 ctranslate2==3.24.0 ctranslate2>4 and ctranslate2>=3.17.0,<=3.24.0 has no wheels with a matching Python ABI tag, we can conclude that ctranslate2>=3.17.0,<3.17.1 cannot be used. And because wyoming-faster-whisper==1.0.1 depends on ctranslate2>=3.17,<4 and you require wyoming-faster-whisper==1.0.1, we can conclude that your requirements are unsatisfiable.
---------END ERROR LOG------

My question is, is there a workaround (already checked faster whisper GitHub for any solutions none there, and this issue has been around since 2023) or can another piece of software be substituted for faster whisper? 

Thanks in advance....?

we don't suggest use virtualbox VM, if home assistant install on raspberry pi, then install whisper without any issue.

But you then need also very good hardware. In mine HA on Pi5 i can then only have to say the ip adres of the whisper and piper server. The wake word is in the esp32 itself. It is not the open wake word.
