Can't install GIS4WRF "error when calling its classFactory() method " (installing from ZIP does not change the outcome)

[caradag]

I've tried to install GIS4WRF in two machines today, without any success.

On Ububtu 20.04 and QGis 3.10, it crashes during installation. Then if I restart, the plugin shows up but disabled. If I click the check box to enable it, QGis inmediatly crashes. I updated to QGis 3.26, but get the same result. I downloaded the code, compiled it and installed using the ZIP file, but got the same issue again.

The second machine runs Ubuntu 22.04 and QGis 3.22. I also tried installing via the plugin manager or the ZIP (to compile I had to install pyqt5-dev-tools). Both installation pathways failed. In this case, instead of crashing it shows the following error:

Couldn't load plugin 'gis4wrf' due to an error when calling its classFactory() method
