Import _C error about frnn HOT 9 CLOSED

Met simliar issue and solved by exiting and re-entering the bash.

from frnn.

I cannot reproduce this with python 3.9.16 / PyTorch 2.0 / CUDA 11.8 / Ubuntu 20.04 locally on my machine. How did you install the library? Maybe you can try to install it with pip install -e . and check again?

Thanks for the issue. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce it on my ubuntu 20.04 with python 3.8.13. It is also weird that develop mode can fix it.

Anyway, since direct invocations of setup.py are deprecated I will change them to pip install ..

Have a similar problem when importing module.

ImportError: cannot import name '_C' from partially initialized module 'frnn' (most likely due to a circular import) (/content/FRNN/frnn/frnn.py)

Tried using in google colab with Python 3.9.16, CUDA 11.8, Ubuntu 20.04.

Plz advise how to solve

It helped, thank you! Had to restart runtime afterwards

Same issue for me, with cuda 11.7, python 3.8.16, pytorch '2.0.1+cu117' on Ubuntu 20.04.
I tried pip install -e . and python setup.py develop as suggested above, but unfortunately the problem is not solved.
Any help/suggestion is appreciated.

Did you restart the bash after installation? This seems to help for some people.

Yes, I do. I also rebooted the machine, just in case. Unfortunately, the problem persists.

I did a quick search and this might related to the circular import caused by the same name of the package and the python file. I will do a PR this weekend and see if renaming the files can fix it.
