Executing pip install hierarchicalforecast on python=3.11.6 (Mac, M2) fails building with quadprog identified as the failure. A fix for the issue is in this branch . However, it seems that the project is looking for maintainers.
Versions / Dependencies
quadprog
Reproduction script
mamba create -n nixtla python=3.11.6 -c conda-forge
pip install hierarchicalforecast
Issue Severity
Medium: It is a significant difficulty but I can work around it.
It also failed on Windows 10, I checked some links but still unable to fix it. Here is the error:
Building wheels for collected packages: quadprog
Building wheel for quadprog (pyproject.toml) ... error

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
ERROR: Failed building wheel for quadprog
Failed to build quadprog
ERROR: Could not build wheels for quadprog, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects
I also tried to get the wheel from the pypi but it didn't have it for Python 3.11.
In case it's useful to anyone, you can use this temporary workaround in the meantime. Before installing hierarchicalforecast, first install this version of quadprog: pip install git+https://github.com/quadprog/quadprog.git@refs/pull/43/head
quadprog 0.1.12 includes wheels for CPython 3.8-3.12 and for the most common operating systems. Feel free to reopen if you encounter this issue again.
thank you ! appreciate the work
