Hello,
on my Windows10 PC, Python 3.13 from MS Store, I installed nightly build of Avogadro2.
Upon downloading plugins I got this error:

error: Multiple top-level packages discovered in a flat-layout: ['data', 'commands', 'inputGenerators'].
To avoid accidental inclusion of unwanted files or directories,
setuptools will not proceed with this build.
If you are trying to create a single distribution with multiple packages
on purpose, you should not rely on automatic discovery.
Instead, consider the following options:
1. set up custom discovery (`find` directive with `include` or `exclude`)
2. use a `src-layout`
3. explicitly set `py_modules` or `packages` with a list of names
To find more information, look for "package discovery" on setuptools docs.
[end of output]
note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

It would help a lot to know what you were trying to do. You mentioned avo_xtb in the title, but the log mentions extracting the molecule set, which seems like it was successful.

I’m guessing this was attempting to install avo_xtb but I don’t know. If you use a terminal and go to c:\users\miroi\appdata\local\openchemistry\avogadro what do you see?

Hello,
somehow the installation failed, looking into details…

Well, I looked into these subdirectories, but I do not see any installation log or similar …

No, there isn’t an install log. That’s what you’re seeing in the window.
Since there’s a requirements.txt for avo_xtb then Avogadro is running pip install -f requirements.txt in that directory. You can try it yourself.
