Error when installing gym==0.21.0 from the setup.py

[luisfvc]

Hello,
When trying to install the package d2l==1.0.0b0 I get the following error:

This doesn't happen when installing gym==0.22.0, for example.
Is it only me? By the way I am really having troubles with the d2l/torch.py module, some classes do not run smoothly.
Regards

Same error occurred to me

pip install setuptools==66 works as well.

Indeed that's the case with gym==0.21.0 @rasoolfa would it be possible to update the RL chapter usage from gym -> gymnasium? A direct change is not possible, since the API has changed. It would be great if you can send a PR to use the new API with Frozenlake env.

Earlier we had gym==0.21.0 as a dependency to d2l. I've taken gym out of the d2l requirements since it was affecting all the notebooks in colab. If someone needs to run d2l RL chapter notebooks in colab, then they'd have to downgrade setuptools as specified in the comments above and manually install gym. d2l library won't automatically install gym==0.21.0.

new gym has indeed breaking backward compatibility, I have to double check that too.
yes, will do it by end of the week.

Hey @rasoolfa, any updates on the use of gymnasium? We plan a release soon with the latest versions of all the frameworks/libraries. It would be great if we could also update the two-year-old pinned version of gym we are currently using.

This should be fixed in the master and will reflect in the next release. Closing now!
