[Bug]: BLE Monitor fails to install dependencies (janus / aioblescan) on HAOS aarch64 (Odroid N2)

[yvanruth]

What happened?

After installing Passive BLE Monitor via HACS on Home Assistant OS (HAOS 16.0) running on an Odroid N2 (aarch64), the integration fails to load due to missing requirements. I had BLE monitoring for over a year without problems. This started happening 2 days ago.

I see this error in the logs:

Setup failed for custom integration 'ble_monitor': Requirements for ble_monitor not found: ['janus>=2.0.0', 'aioblescan>=0.2.14']

I tried multiple versions (13.4 and 13.7.1), and also disabled discovery via configuration.yaml, but the error persists.

BLE Monitor should either:

Extra context

Tried both BLE Monitor 13.4 and 13.7.1

Installed via HACS

Tried uninstall + reinstall + full reboot

No other BLE integrations active

Would appreciate any workaround, or if dependencies could be delayed until runtime (e.g. when discovery is true or BLE device is used).

Thanks a lot for this awesome integration!

I have no idea. Normally, a full system restart (power off, power on) should fix these kind of issues, but you already tried that. Hopefully, someone else has an idea.
