Pip cannot install PySide2 on ARM
Hello,
I'm on macOS with an M1 chip. I tried installing the package using pip install -e . with the latest version of pip (24.0) and separately Python versions 3.8 and 3.9.
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement PySide2>5.15 (from metis) (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for PySide2>5.15
As far as I can tell attempting to install any version of PySide2 fails.
After reading #4, I just tried using rosetta and Docker to run a linux/amd64 Python 3.9 image and the installation works. On the same image for linux/arm64 it fails. Could a disclaimer be added to the README so other folks don't run into the same issue?
Hi I can have a look into the requirements. I am also running the code from an ARM (M2) System, and I have not run into any issues. But I can have a look.
Hi again,
so I tried installing metis with Python 3.8 and Python 3.9 on my M2 Mac. And for both, it worked.
I do not think that https://github.com/JanoschMenke/metis/issues/4, completely relates to your problem, as this is an issue that arises after successfully installing PySide2.
It very had to troubleshoot, the issue, but I already had many issues with managing PySide versions.
Could you try removing the PySide requirement from the .toml and see if an alternative PySide version can be found.
Best, Janosch
