It was reported that the current version of bitsandbytes used in
hivemind[bitsandbytes]
has an error that prevents it from working properly. The first tested release that we can rely on is 0.34.0, which is what I use in this PR. Also, to provide a bit more compatibility with future patches of this release, I've changed the dependency specification from strict equality to compatibility with future patches of0.34
.Notably, if a user wants to use newer versions of bitsandbytes in their applications, they can simply install hivemind (without
[bitsandbytes]
) and bitsandbytes separately: this way, there will be no version conflicts.
