Error while loading the doctr.io and doctr.models

[Arya920]

after installing the doctr using the code pip install python-doctr. I tried to load the package using the following code
`from doctr.models import ocr_predictor

model = ocr_predictor(det_arch='db_resnet50', reco_arch='crnn_vgg16_bn', pretrained=True)`

but getting the following error ~

OSError: cannot load library 'gobject-2.0-0': error 0x7e. Additionally, ctypes.util.find_library() did not manage to locate a library called 'gobject-2.0-0'

please help 🙏😭

Hi @Arya920 👋,
This error is raised from the weasyprint installation.

with the next release you will be able to skip the weasyprint installation (extra dependency)
For the current pypi released version you can do the following:

• install weasyprint via conda: conda install weasyprint
  Or
• try the following fix: OSError: cannot load library 'gobject-2.0-0': error 0x7e Kozea/WeasyPrint#1556 (comment)
  Or
• pip3 install "python-doctr[torch,viz]@git+https://github.com/mindee/doctr.git@main" (this will install from the main branch)

options:
python-doctr[torch,tf,viz,html,contrib] <--- html requires weasyprint
