Step 3 of the Instructions: Set up the environment with pipenv install

There's not enough information here to find the root cause of the failure. This is the top level "pipenv failed to install" error and not the actual error message on what library failed to install.

However, this is almost certainly due to not having some required dev packages installed (for example https://github.com/meeb/tubesync/blob/main/Dockerfile#L100). Python packages like libsass require a bunch of C dev packages to be installed or they fail.

Try running pipenv install with --verbose to see if you can get the actual error message, if it's about some C module failing to compile you'll need to install whatever the missing required packages are.

Unless you're trying to set up a local development environment to make modifications or similar it would be highly advisable to run tubesync in the supplied container, it's a bundle of quite a few services and can be complex to run stand-alone.

Ok, I got to Step 5, but got this. Is there a list of dependencies (and the command to install them) that you can share?

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'background_task'

That would imply that django-background-tasks is not installed. Try pipenv install --verbose django-background-tasks and see what happens. If you get a "package not found" or similar error then it's likely the pinned version of django-background-tasks isn't available for whatever version of Python you're running.
