Notebooks are not working on Colab

[lithuak]

Trying to run the very first cell (in any notebook):

!pip install d2l==1.0.0-beta0

I get the following error:

It's not possible to run notebooks right now.

Yea, we are aware of that. We are in the process of making a release and then we will also upload the d2l package to pypi.

Till then if you want to run the d2l colab notebooks, just replace

!pip install d2l==1.0.0-beta0

with

!pip install git+https://github.com/d2l-ai/d2l-en.git

Thanks @AnirudhDagar !

Closing this since we've made a new release recently and the issue has been fixed with the latest version of d2l. !pip install d2l==1.0.3
