When installing vapi-python with 
pip install vapi-python
, it installs the version 0.1.0, and its unable to install v0.1.9 (even with 
pip install vapi-python==0.1.9
) and therefore I'm unable to use vapi in my python code at all, I cannot do the line 
from vapi_python import Vapi
, as "Vapi" doesn't exist.

@wavy I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with installing the correct version of 
vapi-python
. Let's try to troubleshoot this together. Firstly, please ensure that you have an active internet connection and that you have the correct permissions to install packages in your Python environment. If you're using a virtual environment, make sure it's activated. If the issue persists, it could be due to a temporary problem with the Python Package Index (PyPI) or a problem with the package itself. Here are a few steps you can take: 1. Try updating 
pip
itself to the latest version using the command:
Copy code
pip install --upgrade pip
2. Clear the pip cache, which might contain outdated or corrupted package data:
Copy code
pip cache purge
3. Try installing the package again, specifying the version:
Copy code
pip install vapi-python==0.1.9
If none of these steps work, it's possible that there might be an issue with the package on PyPI or it might not be available for some reason. In that case, you could check the official repository or documentation for 
vapi-python
for any notices or alternative installation methods. If you continue to face difficulties, please provide more details about the error messages you're receiving, and I'll do my best to assist you further.

@wavy I understand that you're having trouble installing the correct version of 
vapi-python
and using it in your code. However, I'm here to support the JavaScript version of VAPI, which is used with the 
@vapi-ai/web
package. For issues related to the Python version of VAPI, I would recommend checking the official documentation or repositories for any version-specific instructions or requirements. If the documentation does not resolve your issue, it might be best to reach out to the support team for 
vapi-python
for further assistance. If you have any questions or need support with the JavaScript version of VAPI, feel free to ask, and I'll be happy to help!
You can continue this conversation by mentioning me in the message.
@wavy It appears that 
vapi-python
has a dependency called 
daily-python
which cannot be found. This could be due to a misnamed dependency or an unpublished package that 
vapi-python
expects to be available. Here are some steps you can take to resolve this issue: 1. **Check for Typographical Errors**: Ensure that the dependency name is correct. Sometimes, package names can be misspelled in the setup files of a package. 2. **Search for the Package**: Try searching for the 
daily-python
package on PyPI or other indexes to see if it exists under a different name. 3. **Check the Project's Repository**: If 
vapi-python
is hosted on a platform like GitHub, check the repository for issues or pull requests related to this problem. Other users might have encountered the same issue, and there might be a solution or workaround available. 4. **Contact the Maintainers**: If the above steps don't yield a solution, consider reaching out to the maintainers of 
vapi-python
. They might be able to provide a fix or give you instructions on how to install the package correctly. 5. **Install from Source**: If the package is available in a repository, you might be able to install it directly from the source using:
Copy code
git clone <repository-url>
   cd <repository-name>
   pip install .
6. **Check for Alternative Packages**: If 
vapi-python
is not a critical dependency, look for alternative packages that offer similar functionality. If you're still unable to resolve the issue after trying these steps, please reach out to the maintainers of 
vapi-python
for more information on how to proceed.
