[joshuayao]

Reproduce the issue: Ensure python is 3.11.

pip install -r requirements.txt

commit id: 71637c0 The supported Python is 3.x in evals/benchmark/README.MD.

  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

hint: See above for details.

Workaround: Downgrade python to 3.10 or lower.

Looks like only 3.10 works now. 3.9 is not supported and I also encountered this issue with python3.11.
