Installation on MacOS Silicon depending on PySide2 #991

Open tabea-schultestrathaus opened 2 weeks ago

Information

What is the current behavior?

I'm trying to install Qiskit Metal on my Mac without using Conda. I've tried pip install qiskit-metal and also tried to install it from source. When installing with pip, I get the following error:

ERROR: Cannot install qiskit-metal==0.0.4, qiskit-metal==0.1.0, qiskit-metal==0.1.1, qiskit-metal==0.1.2 and qiskit-metal==0.1.5 because these package versions have conflicting dependencies.

The conflict is caused by:
    qiskit-metal 0.1.5 depends on pyside2==5.15.2.1
    qiskit-metal 0.1.2 depends on pyside2
    qiskit-metal 0.1.1 depends on pyside2
    qiskit-metal 0.1.0 depends on pyside2
    qiskit-metal 0.0.4 depends on pyside2

I can't install PySide2 however because pip install PySide2 gives the following error:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement PySide2 (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for PySide2

Steps to reproduce the problem

See above.

What is the expected behavior?

I would appreciate any guidance on how to get Qiskit Metal running on MacOS without having to use Conda. Apparently, PySide2 does not support Apple Silicon but maybe someone has a workaround? Thank you in advance!

I've now managed to install a ported version using the pyside6-v2 branch. Trying to run the tutorial from the documentation, I do however get the following error and now I wonder if there's still something wrong:

Thanks for noting this issue. Indeed, pyside on mac has been a tricky thing for some time.

Did you try https://www.pythonguis.com/installation/install-pyside2-mac/

This looks like some issue with the newer version.
