Installation test failed "ValueError: invalid literal for float():" about dex-net HOT 2 OPEN

I am facing the exact same error. If anyone could help out with this, it would be great.

@bingobingo123 did you find a solution already?

Hi everyone,
I also just came across the same problem

TLDR

echo 'export LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

explanation
most probably you have a different number format configured (as was the case for me), which you can check with

env | grep LC

the test script uses meshlabserver to convert the test object data/test/models/bar_clamp.obj to .dexnet/bar_clamp_proc.obj which sadly uses the system configured number format (in the case of us unlucky bastards, this means separating the decimal with comma instead of a dot)
