I am trying to install LBT for Rhino 8 WIP on Windows 10.0.19041.3086.

I get a lot of “fatal errors” from the LBInstall component:

It claims the installation was successful but I can’t find Ladybug Tools among the GH libraries. What is going on?

Running the commands in cmd instead e.g. ./python -m pip install lbt-dragonfly==0.9.408 works fine so it must be an issue with the communication between the GH script and the Python executable.

Yes Installer Fails on V8 even when Choosing .NetFramework over .NetCore in the setDotnetRuntime.
My way of making it work is to install LBT using V7 and that should work once you launch it in v8.
