Python 3.10 has a problem with disutils and setuptools>=58 in that wxPython will not run in conjunction with packages Gooey/DEAP/NEMO. I have been told there is a wxPython wheel which gets round those problems
https://github.com/oleksis/youtube-dl-gui/releases/tag/v1.8.2 but i cannot get the command syntax to work for some relationship between: "git ", #egg", "wxPython"
I tried
pip install -e git https://github.com/oleksis/youtube-dl-gui/releases/tag/v1.8.2/wxPython-4.1.2a1-cp310-cp310-win_amd64.whl#egg=wxPython
and got
pip install -e git https://github.com/oleksis/youtube-dl-gui/releases/tag/v1.8.2/wxPython-4.1.2a1-cp310-cp310-win_amd64.whl#egg=wxPython

What is the correct pip command for this case please.

A new release appeared: https://pypi.org/project/wxPython/4.2.0/ . Binary wheels for w64 available for Python 3.7-3.10.

Syntax pip install git https://URL is used to install from sources from a Git repository — clone, cd, build wheel, install. The link https://github.com/oleksis/youtube-dl-gui/releases/tag/v1.8.2/wxPython-4.1.2a1-cp310-cp310-win_amd64.whl is a direct link to a wheel, it's not a Git repository (GitHub is bigger than just a hosting for reposotories, it has bug tracker, project management, hosting for release artifacts, etc.) so you shouldn't use git https:// syntax.
Try
pip install https://github.com/oleksis/youtube-dl-gui/releases/tag/v1.8.2/wxPython-4.1.2a1-cp310-cp310-win_amd64.whl
The wheel is valid for 64-bit Python version 3.10 on Windows. Check if your Python is the one.
