Python - ModuleNotFoundError: OpenColorIO

[gacaodev]

Body

Hi everyone,

It's been a few days now and i don't know what else to do. I'm having trouble with importing the OpenColorIO module in Python. I've tried this both on my virtual CS50 codespace and my MacbookPro (MacOS 12.7.4) and Python 3.10. I’ve installed it using pip, but when I try to import it, I get the following error:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'OpenColorIO'
I've also tried opencolorio in case it was case sensitivy.

I installed OpenColorIO successfully with the following command:

pip install OpenColorIO

I verified the installation using pip show OpenColorIO, and it shows the correct version (2.4.1).

test/ $ pip show opencolorio
Name: opencolorio
Version: 2.4.1
Summary: OpenColorIO (OCIO) is a complete color management solution geared towards motion picture production with an emphasis on visual effects and computer animation.

Location: /home/ubuntu/.local/lib/python3.12/site-packages
Requires: 
Required-by: 

My Python environment seems to be pointing to the correct locations:

which python and which pip both show:

/usr/local/bin/python

/usr/local/bin/pip

I also checked sys.path in Python, and it correctly lists

sys.path
['', '/usr/local/lib/python312.zip', '/usr/local/lib/python3.12', '/usr/local/lib/python3.12/lib-dynload', '/home/ubuntu/.local/lib/python3.12/site-packages', '/usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages'].

Despite this, when I try to run the following in Python from shell too i get this:

python

import OpenColorIO as ocio
I get the ModuleNotFoundError.

What I've Tried So Far:

Reinstalled OpenColorIO:

Tried reinstalling with the --user flag, but the problem persists.

Even after upgrading and reinstalling the package, the error continues.

Reinstalled Python/Pip:

I even tried reinstalling Python in my local machine completely, thinking there might be a conflict with the installation or misconfiguration, but the problem remains.

Attempted Manual Import in Shell:

I tried importing the module directly in a Python shell, but got the same error

I'm just starting to code, so I would like to apologize in advance if this issue is simple even though i didn't find anything online.
I would really appreciate it if anyone could guide me on this.

Thank you so much.
