In [1]: import faiss

In [2]: faiss.__version__
Out[2]: '1.5.2'

Instructions

I want to show v1.5.3 in the code and use the features:

• add basic support for 6 new metrics in CPU IndexFlat and IndexHNSW (Support as many distances as possible from scipy.spatial.distance #848);
• add support for IndexIDMap/IndexIDMap2 with binary indexes ([Feature Request] IdMap/IdMap2 for IndexBinary #780).

of that version.

What do I need to do for this?
Thank you very much！

The version reported is wrong, the conda package is indeed a build of v1.5.3, with all the new features. I will upload new packages with corrected version number.

@beauby I think some of the conda packages still have inconsistent versions:

$ conda create -n faiss python=3.6 pytorch::faiss-cpu=1.5.3
...
$ conda run -n faiss python -c "import faiss; print(faiss.__version__)"
1.5.2

Thanks for the reminder @juve – will fix it this week.
