osx-arm64 Install Dependency Fix #38

Open Deech08 opened 2 years ago

Deech08 commented 2 years ago

When installing on an M1 Mac, one dependency (tables, not listed as explicit dependency but likely required for some other listed requirement) fails to install.

Adding a required dependency of the package: hdf5 should fix this issue. If hdf5 is installed before tables tries to install, it should work out fine (did for me at least).

Thanks for letting us know! I added the dependency to the installation requirements. Let us know if the problem is now solved.

Apparently, the hdf5 package is creating problems with many other OS. So we removed it from the requirements. We added a note on the README explaining the issue and instructing to manually install hdf5 in case of problems.
