Running the diffusion policy colab, subprocess-exited-with-error

[DanielTakeshi]

I am attempting to run the state-based colab. But the first cell seems to be running into an issue.

I think the first cell tries to run the installation code, but I get the error as shown in the screenshot above. For your copy/paste convenience, the error message is:

Python 3.9.16
  error: subprocess-exited-with-error
  
  × python setup.py egg_info did not run successfully.
  │ exit code: 1
  ╰─> See above for output.
  
  note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
error: metadata-generation-failed

× Encountered error while generating package metadata.
╰─> See above for output.

note: This is an issue with the package mentioned above, not pip.
hint: See above for details.

Is there something that I am missing with regards to how to run and use colab? I am also running into the same error with the vision-based Diffusion Policy colab. For colab, normally I just run the cells by clicking the arrow that runs the cell, or just SHIFT+ENTER.

@cheng-chi Someone else also independently told me of running into this issue. We're wondering if you might be able to take a look? This way we can quickly build upon your work to increase its impact. :)

Hi @DanielTakeshi there seems to be something wrong with the gym package. Investigating

Fixed by pinning setuptools==65.5.0.

I still run into the same issue with setuptools==65.5.0 . And I fixed it by adding pip==22. Which is also mentioned in openai/gym#3176

@AnqiaoLi Thanks for the suggestion! I just updated the CoLab notebook with pip==22
