[srirammadduri-ts]

I encountered an error while attempting to install Tapas on macOS using pip. The installation process failed with the following error message:

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Clone the Tapas repository. git clone https://github.com/google-research/tapas
2. Navigate to the repository directory. cd tapas
3. Run the command pip install -e . to install Tapas.

I have the same problem, have you tried to run it in other system environments？
