If you can't get EasyABC going, you could try Qabc http://brouits.free.fr/qabc/. It doesn't have all the functionality of EasyABC so might not suit your project's needs, but it's a reliable writer/editor/displayer of abc files. Might be a way of progressing with your project until you can get EasyABC fixed.

pyparsing is installed, but the problem remains: EasyABC opens but the "Musical score" panel remains empty and doesn't show the tune of the abc file below it. In the "ABC code" panel I can edit the tune, transpose it, etc, but nothing appears in the score panel.

Thanks JW - great news that this will be fixed in the next version. EasyABC is an excellent facility and I'm looking forward to getting it back. In the meantime I've tried your temporary fix above and it removed the old pyparsing.py but at the install command I get "Error: target not found: python3-pyparsing".

Comment from Manjaro team: "It must be adapted to Python 3.10. The collections module does not provide MutableMappings anymore. It was deprecated a while ago, the developers of EasyABC must change their code." Any chance of this happening?

EasyABC had been working fine under Manjaro Linux, but after a recent Manjaro update it fails to open. I tried a clean re-install of EasyABC but it failed and I get the following terminal message: [ray@ray-dell ~]$ easyabc 14:20:39: Warning: Mismatch between the program and library build versions detected. The library used 3.0 (wchar_t,compiler with C++ ABI 1014,wx containers,compatible with 2.8), and wxPython used 3.0 (wchar_t,compiler with C++ ABI 1016,wx containers,compatible with 2.8).

Good to see there's an updated version of EasyABC. Will it soon be available in the repositories for easy installing on Manjaro Linux using yay or pamac? Being a musician rather than a computer techie, I don't know how to install it from the downloaded zip package (have looked for an easy guide but haven't found one I can understand!).

Some very patient support from the EasyABC maintainer Seymour Shlien enabled me to fix this problem. It turned out I have two versions of Python on my Linux computer, and the problem was solved by launching EasyAbc with Python2.7 rather than Python3.
