How do I resolve error installing manim using poetry?

I want to setup manim community repo using poetry. I ran the command "poetry install". I am getting the following error. Python 3.8.5, Pip 20.2.4

Solution

Use poetry only when you want to contribute to Manim Community itself, or else don't use it.

Now let's, come to the error. What the error, say's is it can't find some shared libraries. According to the docs, it says, you have to install Pango for it to work.

Possibly, you may have missed this step. https://docs.manim.community/en/latest/installation/win.html#pango-installation
