Hello, thank you for maintaining this. I am getting the same error during check stage: 

ImportError: huggingface-hub>=0.34.0,<1.0 is required for a normal functioning of this module, but found huggingface-hub==1.1.1.

Which I realize is an issue with the upstream having the import step check the version of huggingface-hub hardcoded into it. It did seem strange to me that what triggered the python-transformers update was the update to huggingface-hub, even though the two versions are incompatible. But thinking about it differently:

Had python-transformers NOT updated (suggested below), then anything trying to import transformers would still fail because:

  • upstream's import checks what version of huggingface-hub is installed (with an upper limit)
  • huggingface-hub updated before upstream transformers, making the two incompatible

I'm not really sure what the best solution there is besides users downgrading huggingface-hub and managing their versions themselves (which is what I did for now).

@daskol I'm confused how you're running checks before bumping the version if the required version of huggingface-hub was released 2 hours ago

@envolution Of course, stage check in PKGBUILD addresses exactly this issue.

There's a number of packages that depend on this and it may be worthwhile to withhold version increments until upstream dependencies dependencies catch up:

@daskol out of curiosity, are you running build tests before bumping versions? There's a number of packages that depend on this and it may be worthwhile to withhold version increments until upstream dependencies dependencies catch up:

clone/python-transformers/src/transformers-4.54.0/src/transformers/utils/versions.py", line 44, in _compare_versions
    raise ImportError(
        f"{requirement} is required for a normal functioning of this module, but found {pkg}=={got_ver}.{hint}"
    )
ImportError: huggingface-hub>=0.34.0,<1.0 is required for a normal functioning of this module, but found huggingface-hub==0.33.5.

If you would like I can help with this

NOTE The next v4.51.0 requires xet-core (transitive through python-huggingface-hub>=1:0.30.0). It is now under testing in extra-testing.

envolution commented on 2025-03-28 20:42 (UTC)

no worries, I think they intended to publish 4.50.3 but somehow used the previous version tag - agree with all of your sentiments on the issue log

daskol commented on 2025-03-28 19:57 (UTC)

@envolution Thank you for reporting the issue.

HF maintainers indeed have changed release v4.50.2 (checksums of my backed up and newly downloaded tarball differ). Here is the issue to track an incident on HF side.

envolution commented on 2025-03-28 16:18 (UTC)

Yeah the new archive tagged 4.50.2 actually builds a wheel called dist/transformers-4.50.3-py3-none-any.whl - so the package section fails:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/20250328121057_python-transformers/python-transformers/src/transformers-4.50.2/dist/transformers-4.50.2-*-*.whl'

here's the wheel after build succeeds:

$ ls /tmp/20250328121057_python-transformers/python-transformers/src/transformers-4.50.2/dist/transformers*
/tmp/20250328121057_python-transformers/python-transformers/src/transformers-4.50.2/dist/transformers-4.50.3-py3-none-any.whl

envolution commented on 2025-03-28 16:13 (UTC)

they probably replaced the archive for some reason, the correct shasum is:

sha256sums=('50e286552ddef214d49f75ac2ab5acd68efbc1c57b9930ead2e6d04f197e9024')

Thanks! That's now fixed in python-safetensors-bin

archlinux-ai seemed enticing but I don't feel comfortable adding a Moscow-based maintainer to my trusted keys.

(I realize that's you and I appreciate your work and hope things improve one day.)
