Problem

bitsandbytes==0.43.1 pinned in requirements.txt has no macOS wheel on PyPI (#71). Running pip install -r requirements.txt fails for all Mac users — they can't even get started.

Fix

  • requirements.txt: bitsandbytes == 0.43.1bitsandbytes == 0.42.0
  • requirements_min.txt: bitsandbytes >= 0.43.1bitsandbytes >= 0.42.0

Version 0.42.0 is the last release with macOS support and works with all chapter notebooks.

Testing

  • Verified 0.42.0 exists on PyPI with macOS wheels
  • No functional differences for any chapter code

Fixes #71
