But installation proceeded fine if I pull the code using "git":

$ git clone https://github.com/ersilia-os/zaira-chem.git
$ cd zaira-chem
$ sh install_linux.sh

To use nvidia graphics card, I also had to install dgl-cuda.
$ conda install --offline dgl-cuda10.1-0.9.1-py37_0.tar.bz2

Above steps worked ok.

I'm having a similar issue, except pulling with git clone doesn't solve the problem. Any suggestions?

[gdreiman-insitro]

Finally sorted this out. In short, this repo assumes that you have git-lfs installed, I didn't. If you run into this, install git-lfs and then rm -rf the repo. When you git clone it again, the requirements.txt file will be retrieved from git lfs and you can install the environment properly.

A note to the authors, it might not make sense to store such a small file with lfs. Providing it directly would simplify install, especially since many Amazon EC2 AMIs don't have git-lfs by default and unpacking the current requirements.txt file gives very confusing errors.

Hi @gdreiman-insitro

Thansk for the insight. The reason Git-LFS is required is because the Ersilia Model Hub does require Git-lfs (though we are removing that dependency by moving to S3 buckets and/or Docker containers). In any case we can revise the Git LFS requirements for the ZairaChem repository itself to avoid confusions - thanks

The Git-LFS dependency has been resolved, I'll close this issue
