error while installing yolox

[kd10041]

• I am facing following error while installing YOLOX. I tried updating pip and setup tools. I need to install YOLOX and use it with the unstructured library for images and table extracting. I am new to python and Machine learning. Please help me regarding the following:

$ pip3 install -v -e .
Using pip 24.0 from C:\Users\k.divyanshu\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\Lib\site-packages\pip (python 3.12)
DEPRECATION: Loading egg at c:\users\k.divyanshu\appdata\local\programs\python\python312\lib\site-packages\yolox-0.3.0-py3.12.egg is deprecated. pip 24.3 will enforce this behaviour change. A possible replacement is to use pip for package installation.. Discussion can be found at pypa/pip#12330

This is -- a caller that pip uses to run setup.py

It imports setuptools before invoking setup.py, to enable projects that directly
import from distutils.core to work with newer packaging standards.
It provides a clear error message when setuptools is not installed.
It sets sys.argv[0] to the underlying setup.py, when invoking setup.py so

It generates a shim setup.py, for handling setup.cfg-only projects.

I have the same issue

[malaccan]

i have the exact same issue

[malaccan]

actually, i resolved this by downgrading python to 3.10. works fine now. previously, i was trying to install using python 3.12 which resulted in the error below (and as highlighted above):

If you are using pip, you can try `pip install --use-pep517`.

I had the same problem and it was a major blocker.

python 3.10
devcontainer linux based image built on aarch platform

I am using devcontainer with a linux based image that is built on aarch (mac). I first used poetry to install the onnx-simplifier but since there is no pre-existing wheels existed for my os distribution pip started to build it from scratch which is basically where the issue begins.

The aarch base for some reason fails to build the wheels for onnx simplifier 0.4.10.

I just changed the onnx-simplifier version to 0.3.10 and it successfully got installed.

I can work on the pull request to enable yolox installation via pip and make the onnx-simplifier fixed version to the latest version
