I had a raspberry Pi 4b running skyweather for almost a year now, couple days ago i upgraded from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04 and skyweather is trashed it will not run.
I have corrected some errors but this one has put the nail in the coffin on it.
/home/active/SDL_Pi_SkyWeather# python SkyWeather.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "SkyWeather.py", line 92, in <module>
import Scroll_SSD1306
File "/home/active/SDL_Pi_SkyWeather/Scroll_SSD1306.py", line 10, in <module>
from pil import Image
ImportError: No module named pil
Since Ubuntu 20.04 no longer comes with python2 and forces you to use python3 i am stuck and unable to get pil working so unless i rewrite the software for python2 its no longer usable in Ubuntu after 18.04.
I may try and rewrite it but just to get started every print command in every file need to be changed just to start which means it will take a lot of time.
Only other option is to downgrade the unit back to Ubuntu 18.04

Does Ubuntu 20.04 not allow you to install Python2?
Thanks,
Jason

Have you tried installing "pil"?
No module named pil
Try:
sudo pip install pil
BP
P.S. If you are trying to convert the SkyWeather software to Python3 (SkyWeather2 is Python3) check on the forums. I'm pretty sure someone did this a while back.

Ubuntu 20 breaks python2 most of the modules needed have no distribution sources anymore, since python2 is deprecated Ubuntu is forcing users to move to python 3 which i lmao should have seen if i had read the release notes before upgrading. I am going to port the skyweather software to python 3 since its likely the best way to fix it. First thing is to change every single "print" statement since that changed from python 2 to 3 and all the current ones will throw a syntax error now. The second thing that changed is the "import MySQLdb as mdb" since that is gone as well in python3. I will post the files here when i get it properly running under python3. I think my issue is also complicated by the fact I am running 64 bit ubunutu on my raspberry-pi 4B as well.
