Installation issues for Mask Former

[DevikalyanDas]

Hello @Junyi42 ,
Thanks for your contribution. I am facing the an installation issue when running the "pip install -e ." command. This is giving the error as follows:

Emitting ninja build file /BS/keytr_neus/work/supplementary/sd-dino/third_party/Mask2Former/build/temp.linux-x86_64-cpython-39/build.ninja...

error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/BS/keytr_neus/work/supplementary/sd-dino/third_party/Mask2Former/build/temp.linux-x86_64-cpython-39/build.ninja'

ERROR: Failed building wheel for mask2former

ERROR: Could not build wheels for mask2former, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

Please help me in this

Hi,

Thanks for your interest in our work!

error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/BS/keytr_neus/work/supplementary/sd-dino/third_party/Mask2Former/build/temp.linux-x86_64-cpython-39/build.ninja'

For this issue, you could check whether there exists a folder third_party/Mask2Former/build/temp.linux-x86_64-cpython-39, and you could create one if not. Then, rerun the pip install -e . command, and it might avoid this issue.

I'm sorry I haven't met this issue before. After a quick search on Google, a potential solution could be pip install pyproject-toml and pip install setuptools wheel. Hope this could address your issue.

Best.

Hello, thanks for your quick reply. Yes, creating the folder in third party actually removed the error. Thanks a lot.

if the problem still exists, just use pip install setuptools==59.5.0
