TypeError: argument of type 'NoneType' is not iterable

When I try to import whisper I get this error:

if` '/' in name or '\\' in name: TypeError: argument of type 'NoneType' is not iterable

[Abdurrafey-Siddiqui]

nvm, I forced reinstalled whisper and it worked.

After doing force reinstall, I am still getting the same error message: " if '/' in name or '\' in name:
TypeError: argument of type 'NoneType' is not iterable"
I have downgraded from 3.11 to 3.10

For who has the same error and can't fix:

You seem installed wrong package as pip install whisper
But you need to install this package pip install openai-whisper

so you should first uninstall whisper then install openai-whisper

1. pip uninstall whisper
2. pip install openai-whisper

I use Python 3.12 and it shows this same error.

I believe the error comes from installing whisper instead of openai-whisper
