I try to install product_custom_attributes on an onsite v7 installation. I Have downloaded the zip file, unpacked and moved it to /opt/openerp/v7/addons. But trying to install it by clicking "install" gives me an error

Unable to install module "base_custom_attributes" because an external dependency is not met: No module named unidecode

that's pretty clear basically but I couldn't find any Module called "unidecode" so I am a little stuck. While looking around I found this https://github.com/buke/openerp-product-x-attributes but I am not really sure how this is related

seems that the error message you get in OpenERP "no module named unidecode" is a little misleading. This is not a Module in OpenERP but a python package called unidecode

You need to install the unidecode Python package from PIP. 

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Unidecode

The way to do that is in the terminal do:

# sudo pip install unidecode

Hope this helps

If you're using the one-click full install of OpenERP you will see that with "pip install unidecode" won't work. That's because the one-click install comes with its own python packages.

So you need to download the zipped file from: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Unidecode

Then you need to unzip it and copy the "unicode" folder and paste it into the /Server/server/ folder. In my case OpenERP v7 is installed in, c:\Program Files (x86)\OpenERP 7.0-20130412-232402\Server\server

Restart the server and that's it :)

Today is Apr 27, 2023 and after trying a lot of things, the answer of Eric from 2014 was the one that worked for me. I downloaded the  "Unidecode-1.3.6.tar.gz" file from https://pypi.org/project/Unidecode/#files. Then I unzipped the file and got a folder called "Unidecode-1.3.6". Inside that I found all the files and a folder called "unidecode". I copied that folder and just pasted it in my server folder where the odoo-bin and odoo.conf files are located. Restarted the server and "Update Apps List" on the Odoo platform (Developer mode on). I installed the module that was having the error and it worked perfectly! No errors. Thanks Eric.
