setup.py dependency error

[Salvatore-tech]

Good evening, i created a conda env thorugh conda env create -f environment.yml and then activated it. However when i try to python setup.py install/develop i get the following message:

Installed /home/s/FlowNets/ezflow
Processing dependencies for ezflow==0.2.3
error: importlib-metadata 4.11.4 is installed but importlib-metadata<1,>=0.12; python_version < "3.8" is required by {'tox'}

Can you please clarify what's wrong? Thanks in advance

Hi @Salvatore-tech, thanks for your interest in ezflow and sorry for the error you encountered. I've pushed a fix for this error in #238. Could you please try installing the library once again without creating a conda env thorugh conda env create -f environment.yml? Thanks.

Also, if you wish, you can also install a stable release of the library using pip install ezflow.

If you face any further trouble, please feel free to comment here. Hope you'll like using the library.

Hi @NeelayS, thanks for the answer, after the https://github.com/neu-vi/ezflow/pull/238 the install process for stable release is fixed, but if i try to compile from source (python setup.py install) it gives a new conflict about Pillow: error: Pillow 8.3.1 is installed but pillow!=8.3.*,>=5.3.0 is required by {'torchvision'}

Can you verify if the conflict exists? Thanks!

Hi @Salvatore-tech, did try installing in a new but empty virtual environment (conda/venv)?

To check, I also tried installing the library in a Colab notebook and that works fine.

I tried again creating a new conda empty environment with python 3.8 but i'm getting the following error
error: numpy 1.23.2 is installed but numpy<1.23.0, >=1.16.5 is required by {'scipy'}

Could you please provide the complete error trace?

I'm closing the issue since i'm not able to reproduce it anymore :) Probably i messed up with the global version of numpy or something like that, because it was complaining about the fact that numpy was already installed but with a not suitable version. Thanks for your support!
