Installation Error

[ashwinkots]

Hi, I am trying to install the latest Git version on a Ubuntu 20.4 and am getting the following message after running the command:

sudo python3 setup.py develop

Processing dependencies for parlai==1.5.1 error: importlib-metadata 4.2.0 is installed but importlib-metadata>=4.4; python_version < "3.10" is required by {'markdown'}

Any help is appreciated.

Hi @ashwinkots I made this change in the requirements.txt

importlib-metadata<4.3 -> importlib-metadata>=4.4

and added this line In the top of it

markdown==3.3.4

And works, for me.

Hi Valmir, would you be willing to submit a patch?

[valmirosjunior]

Sorry man, I didn't see your reply, do you think it's necessary yet?

[valmirosjunior]

I think this PR: #4224 has solved the problem.

[ashwinkots]

Thanks all. This worked perfectly.
