TimesFM/Colab Install Error

[BBQChris]

When running %pip install timesfm in Google Colab (free version) I get the following error:

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.
google-colab 1.0.0 requires ipython==7.34.0, but you have ipython 8.29.0 which is incompatible.
The VM then gets stuck in a boot loop after restart.

To workaround I tried %pip install timesfm "ipython==7.34.0
With this, the VM reboots successfully however, there are then dependency errors with import timesfm

Would appreciate any suggestions, cheers!

For now:

!pip install "git+https://github.com/google-research/timesfm.git@rajat_dev#egg=timesfm[torch]"

works on colab GPU and CPU with python 3.11. We just needed to remove the ipython dependency.

Thank you, timesfm is now installing and importing without error!
