When building ROS2 on Windows using this command on Visual studio command prompt

colcon build --merge install

It shows the error:

Exception loading extension 'colcon_core.environment_variable.powershell_command': cannot import name 'Interpreter' from 'em' (c:\python37\lib\site-packages\em\__init__.py)
Traceback (most recent call last):

    from em import Interpreter
ImportError: cannot import name 'Interpreter' from 'em' (c:\python37\lib\site-packages\em\__init__.py)

Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?

Thanks!

It looks like you have the wrong dependency installed. You need https://pypi.org/project/EmPy/ (not https://pypi.org/project/em/ ).

I did install EmPy using :

pip install -U catkin_pkg EmPy git+https://github.com/lark-parser/lark.git@0.7d pyparsing pyyaml

Should I uninstall em in this case?

Thanks!

That might be necessary if both packages use the same module name.
