python -m pip install --use-feature=2020-resolver . taking forever to install dependencies

[kabyanil]

I'm using the following commands to install TFOD 2.

https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/g3doc/tf2.md

there is this specific command - python -m pip install --use-feature=2020-resolver .

when i run this, the installation keeps on running indefinitely and eventually the runtime terminates.

You can reproduce the issue by following the mentioned approach to install TFOD 2 in the given link above.

The expected behavior is to complete the installation process.

System information: google colab pro

I have the same issue. It seems to have something to do with the fact that pip has to download multiple versions of some of the packages which is ok in the beginning but after some time it just stops.

apparently, the issue is with the pip version. you can try updating pip using the following command -

!pip install --upgrade pip

I think now the update pip won't work. because I have the latest version of pip but still getting same error.

$ python -m pip install -U pip
Requirement already satisfied: pip in ./venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages (24.1)

Edit: no need for the --use-feature=2020-resolver argument. exclude it and you will get your installation start.
