Error while executing create -f environment.yml

[SatyamKumarr]

When I am executing create -f environment.yml it is showing the error that is attached in the screenshot. Let me know if there is any solution for the same. I am using conda 23.11.0. Even I have run this command pip install --upgrade pip setuptools

Hi, thank you for reaching out with your question.

It appears that the issue you're encountering stems from the deprecation of the sklearn PyPI package.

While we don't have a direct dependency on this package, our dependency flair==0.4.2 (see requirements.yml) does require sklearn (you can find this in flair's requirements.txt here).

There are two solutions:

1. Install a newer version of the flair package.
2. Alternatively, you can circumvent this error as follows:

export SKLEARN_ALLOW_DEPRECATED_SKLEARN_PACKAGE_INSTALL=True
conda env create -f environment.yml

Regarding the first approach, I haven't verified whether the latest flair package still supports loading our pretrained models.

Hope it helps.
