🔒 WhisperX update left me clueless | Python | Page 1

Hello, sorry for making a post for what might be a pretty small issue, but I am a very amateurish programmer who just wants to use WhisperX.

Since its update to v3.3.4, it's been given this warning whenever installing the stable version + ffmpeg + py7zr WARNING: Error parsing requirements for numpy: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/opt/conda/lib/python3.10/site-packages/numpy-1.26.4.dist-info/METADATA' WARNING: Error parsing requirements for pandas: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/opt/conda/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pandas-2.2.2.dist-info/METADATA'along with a lot of dependency errors ERROR: pip's dependency resolver does not currently take into account all the packages that are installed. This behaviour is the source of the following dependency conflicts. cudf 24.8.2 requires cubinlinker, which is not installed. cudf 24.8.2 requires cupy-cuda11x>=12.0.0, which is not installed. cudf 24.8.2 requires ptxcompiler, which is not installed. cuml 24.8.0 requires cupy-cuda11x>=12.0.0, which is not installed. dask-cudf 24.8.2 requires cupy-cuda11x>=12.0.0, which is not installed. ucxx 0.39.1 requires libucx>=1.15.0, which is not installed.
If I try to force update it, it gives me this error
ERROR: Cannot uninstall numpy 1.26.4, RECORD file not found. You might be able to recover from this via: 'pip install --force-reinstall --no-deps numpy==1.26.4'.
Trying to actually run WhisperX returns this error RuntimeError: Failed to import transformers.pipelines because of the following error (look up to see its traceback): operator torchvision::nms does not exist (if necessary, I can provide the script, however it seems like that is not the issue)
I tried restarting the kernel and installing previous versions of torch and numpy, tried force reinstalling numpy with no deps, but nothing seems to be working and chatGPT is of no help either.
Any advice?

Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

hm interesting

#

so you're using conda

#

Since its update to v3.3.4, So how did you actually upgrade?

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:09 PM

#

yeah I think, I'm also using a cloud IDE if that makes a difference

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:11 PM

#

rough quartz `Since its update to v3.3.4,` So how did you actually upgrade?

!sudo apt-get update --allow-releaseinfo-change && sudo apt install ffmpeg
!pip install py7zr

!pip install --upgrade whisperx``` I know the upgrade is probably redundant. I'm getting an output error in the first cell

rough quartz May 3, 2025, 2:13 PM

#

this is random but try upgrading pip

#

pip3 install --upgrade pip

#

should be something like this

#

are you using um jupyter?

#

I've never used conda before, so I'm not super sure how it comes into play here

#

I would almost be inclined to start from scratch. Maybe start a new venv and pip install WhisperX there. It should install all dependencies to the new environment again

#

i'm looking at the whisperx github page and they recommend installation through pip anyway

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:15 PM

#

oh, I think it might be working

rough quartz May 3, 2025, 2:15 PM

#

oh yeah?

#

what did you end up doing?

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:17 PM

#

upgraded pip from 24.0 to 25.1
still got some dependency errors

#

one sec, will keep you updated

#

nevermind. It's still telling me to reinstall numpy after restarting the kernel

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:21 PM

#

rough quartz I would almost be inclined to start from scratch. Maybe start a new venv and pip...

tried that before making the post. Got the same error

#

I'm probably doing something incredibly stupid without noticing

rough quartz May 3, 2025, 2:22 PM

#

no i dont think it's you

#

what a mess

#

are you able to pip uninstall it?

#

#

this might work

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:26 PM

#

dense rampart nevermind. It's still telling me to reinstall numpy after restarting the kernel

well, that's the initial issue
It can't uninstall numpy
and it's prompting me to reinstall numpy, which requires unintalling it in the first place. Will try looking into it though

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:43 PM

#

ok I'm at a loss. Managed to reinstall a prev version of numpy through the console, tried latest version again
still getting runtime error

Failed to import transformers.generation.utils because of the following error (look up to see its traceback):
numpy.dtype size changed, may indicate binary incompatibility. Expected 96 from C header, got 88 from PyObject```

#

I'd better just downgrade whisperX and hope for the best

rough quartz May 3, 2025, 2:45 PM

#

The solution on SO is to downgrade the python version

#

sorry

#

the um numpy version

#

It's an incompatability between numpy and pandas apparently

#

can you confirm what versions you have right now

#

pip list

#

you can also try pip check to check compatabilities

#

It might be that updating numpy requires also updating the other packages

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:52 PM

#

rough quartz May 3, 2025, 2:53 PM

#

what about pip check

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:54 PM

#

yeah, numpy is downgraded to 1.26.4. Though I think installing whisoerX automatically requires the latest package

rough quartz May 3, 2025, 2:54 PM

#

Yeah it probably just installs whatever is listed in requirements.txt. You can change that manually

#

(look up to see its traceback): Does it show a traceback above that error?

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:55 PM

#

rough quartz what about pip check

cudf 24.8.2 requires cupy-cuda11x, which is not installed.
cudf 24.8.2 requires ptxcompiler, which is not installed.
cuml 24.8.0 requires cupy-cuda11x, which is not installed.
dask-cudf 24.8.2 requires cupy-cuda11x, which is not installed.
ucxx 0.39.1 requires libucx, which is not installed.``` and a bunch of other stuff that exceed the word limit

rough quartz May 3, 2025, 2:55 PM

#

I mentioned pandas, it might actually be transformers library from the error

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:55 PM

#

this is before installing whisperx again though

#

which shouldn't be a factor..I think

rough quartz May 3, 2025, 2:56 PM

#

what happens if you pip install whisperx

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 2:56 PM

#

rough quartz `(look up to see its traceback):` Does it show a traceback above that error?

where exactly?

I'm not sure. Wherever that error came from

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 3:02 PM

rough quartz what happens if you pip install whisperx

a lot of things, but mainly this giant dependency error

huh, numpy stayed downgraded to 1.26.4

dense rampart May 3, 2025, 3:25 PM

#

it really does seem to not be a numpy version issue though
