torchtext version issue

[CarreraPHP]

@team,

my Mac Specification - Mac M3 Max 128GB RAM and 4TB Storage.

I cloned the repo and trying to install below error occurs

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement torchtext==0.17.1 (from corenet) (from versions: 0.1.1, 0.2.0, 0.2.1, 0.2.3, 0.3.1, 0.4.0, 0.5.0, 0.6.0, 0.16.2, 0.17.2, 0.18.0)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for torchtext==0.17.1

I am able to get the torchtext 0.18.0 but again it is not working.

I use conda for python and installed latest python version

I initially had the same issue on MacBook Pro M1; However, it fixed when I explicitly mentioned the python version 11 (instead of default 12 on my system) when installing venv by changing the following part of installation:

python3.11 -m venv venv && source venv/bin/activate

I think its reasonable to have an improvement on the documentation around versions.

After changing Python version to 3.11.9 on Ubuntu Desktop 24.04, everything works fine.

Hi @CarreraPHP @rezashahnazar and @michaelrrrrrr,

Thank you for bringing this into our attention and thank you for your suggestions. My understanding from your suggestions is that the torchtext==0.17.1 dependency fails to get installed on python-3.12. We will look into this and update our requirements and/or documentation.
