I can't install entmax
pip install entmax produces the same error

I'm aware of this issue. Sadly there is not much I personally can do about it. Related deep-spin/entmax#26

The solution is to first install pytorch, then install LaTeX-OCR. Follow the instructions on their website: https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/

[doongjohn]

I first installed pythorch with this command
pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu116

and then I installed pix2tex with this command
pip install pix2tex[gui]

but the same error still occurs 😢
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'entmax'

what am I missing?

[lukas-blecher]

That's weird. What python version are you using?

I'd suggest to open another issue in the entmax repo

[doongjohn]

I'm using python 3.10.5 and pip 22.2.2

[lukas-blecher]

I was able to install it in 3.10
No idea what's happening
