FYI This is caused by: https://github.com/mjg59/python-broadlink/blob/master/broadlink/__init__.py#L7

This looks pretty similar to #2411, if I run the import in a shell I get:

>>> from Crypto.Cipher import AES
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/Crypto/Cipher/__init__.py", line 3, in <module>

    from Crypto.Util._raw_api import (load_pycryptodome_raw_lib,

    from Crypto.Util.py3compat import byte_string
ImportError: cannot import name 'byte_string'

Doing

pip3 uninstall pycrypto
pip3 uninstall pycryptodome
pip3 install pycryptodome

Lets me import the broadlink module without error

[hiol83]

Same problem for me.
Where is it possibile to send these commands with Hass.io ?

pip3 uninstall pycrypto pip3 uninstall pycryptodome pip3 install pycryptodome

if i try it with putty i have this answer:

-bash: pip3: command not found

[kvjajoo]

After uninstalling pycrpto and pycryptodome when i execute "pip3 install pycryptodome" i get below error.

unable to execute 'gcc': No such file or directory
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

----------------------------------------

Command "/usr/bin/python3.6 -u -c "import setuptools, tokenize;__file__='/tmp/pi p-build-k9mr5eah/pycryptodome/setup.py';f=getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)(__file __);code=f.read().replace('\r\n', '\n');f.close();exec(compile(code, __file__, ' exec'))" install --record /tmp/pip-w13a6v3k-record/install-record.txt --single-v ersion-externally-managed --compile" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build- k9mr5eah/pycryptodome/

Looks like there is no gcc on hass.io. How do i install gcc on hass.io. I am running hass.io as a docker container on generic ubuntu x86 machine.

FWIW, the ZHA module has the same issue using the docker build of HASS. I suspect the docker layer that includes the dependancies was not re-run for this release and/or there's an outdated version requirement in the code.

[Meganoodle71]

Same issue with my setup. I guess it will be fixed on the next update if not a workaround will be published.

[orens]

Is there a workaround for docker installations? I use homeassistant/home-assistant (as most docker installations, I think)

[dvd77]

I am on docker 2 .. think we have to wait for a fix ont his one. 0.64.1 is coming this evening as I understood

[roblandry]

@orens, @dvd77 see this for docker until a code fix is released.

[orens]

Thanks much, @roblandry! Workaround working for me.

[kvjajoo]

After uninstalling pycrpto and pycryptodome when i execute "pip3 install pycryptodome" i get below error.

I got it ..

Install gcc by following commands

apk update
apk fetch build-base
apk add build-base

after this i was able to reinstall pycryptodome

[dvd77]

still not working for me... still same error and no result with the fix from @roblandry

_EDIT:: WORKING!!!

Had to remove the ':' in the mac address !_

[hiol83]

I know that this is not the best solution, but a downgrade helped me

curl -d '{"version": "0.63.1"}' http://hassio/homeassistant/update

[v0ltage120]

Hello I had the same prob and here is how I fixed it on my Hass.io docker install on Ubuntu 👍

1. Get into the docker instance with : sudo docker exec -i -t homeassistant /bin/bash
2. update apk to get gcc with what kvjajoo said :

apk update
apk fetch build-base
apk add build-base

1. Remove and reinstall pycrypto with :

pip3 uninstall pycrypto
pip3 uninstall pycryptodome
pip3 install pycryptodome

1. restart your Homeassistant and got my broadlink back
