Description

python3.9
windows 10
When I run the command:
pip3 install umap-learn
I get the following error:
Failed to build llvmlite
Installing collected packages: llvmlite, numba, umap-learn
Running setup.py install for llvmlite ... error

FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified
error: command 'c:\scratch\python39\python.exe' failed with exit code 1

does anyone know how to overcome this?

Research direction

Reproduce pip3 install umap-learn on Python 3.9 and Windows 10, then inspect the reported llvmlite build failure and missing executable. The issue is resolved when umap-learn and its llvmlite and numba dependencies install successfully in that environment.
