@Wittmannen You should install build-essential to add the missing build tools.

sudo apt-get install build-essential

You'll then be able to install wheel and cryptodomex with pip

pip install wheel
pip install --user pycryptodomex

Looks like you're using OSMC and cryptodome library is missing.

You can try in ssh :

sudo apt install python-pip
sudo pip install pycryptodomex

Should work on a RPi3 too.

Installing pip was fine, but pycrytodomex resulted in the following

This is once again a missing py module.

You have to install Wheel this time, and some more packages may be needed...

If you need more help to install modules in OSMC, I encourage you to ask for help in their forum.

And btw, a missing Cryptodome library is not a bug, but a prerequisite ^^

I'll try on their forum then! :)
Yeah sorry, thought it was a bug since I assumed it was installed (after checking under dependencies).
Not very much of a veteran in this yet, but thanks for the help!

Just tried on OSMC, and the full sequence is, for the record:

sudo apt-get install python-dev python-pip build-essential

and then

pip install wheel
pip install --user pycryptodomex

@Wittmannen is your problem solved?

Yeah forgot to close the issue, but adam7's instructions worked, but guess yours would have accomplished the same.
Thanks for the help!
