Note that colab uses Python 3.10.12

Trying to manually comment out the packages and see which is causing the issue.

Hey @mmirman @INF800, would like to work on this could you assign me this issue.

Trying to manually comment out the packages and see which is causing the issue.

Found out the issue. It is due to flask package

It is causing

ERROR: Cannot uninstall 'blinker'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial uninstall.

Replacing it with "flask>=2.0" does the job but we need to restart the session to be able to run import llm_vm, need to figure out the reason behind it.

To be able to properly run LLM-VM on jupyter notebooks (also colab) it would be necessary to refactor the way the arguments are parsed.

I created a story for that #176

I wanted to get this done but wasnt able to finish. So if anyone wants to finish trying to make anarchy usable in google colab maybe this helps

@dafinley will take a shot at it

"flask>=2.3.2",

This was mentioned by @INF800 last month the task is to get it done without the need for restarting the session.

Ahh. At least we have a path forward now.

With the downgrade of flask + #176 it is working properly in colab, but the proper solution would be #177

There is a link to a colab notebook to test it
