Hello everyone, I hope you all peace and love. Currently, I’m having some troubles with the installation of amplpy package on my IDE PyCharm. It is not related to pip update. the message I get is as following:

C:\Users\TOSHIBA\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\include\pyconfig.h(59): fatal error C1083: No se puede abrir el archivo incluir: ‘io.h’: No such file or directory  
error: command ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.43.34808\bin\HostX86\x64\cl.exe’ failed with exit code 2  
[end of output]

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.  
ERROR: Failed building wheel for amplpy  
Failed to build amplpy  
ERROR: Failed to build installable wheels for some pyproject.toml based projects (amplpy)

I thankful any help from you.

Hi @jairo.yumbla,

Thank you for reaching out. We have not released amplpy for Python 3.13 yet but we are currently working on it. We will let you know as soon as it is released. Meanwhile, would it be possible for you to use a virtual environment with Python 3.12?
