I was getting the same error while installing The transformers Library From hugginface, Specifically while installing flax and tensor flow

i Found a Solution To my problem, Leaving it here in case Anyone Else gets Stuck on this.

pip install 'transformers[tf-cpu]'

pip install 'transformers[flax]' (these commands are given on hugginface transformers installation page)

i tried multiple things but nothing i saw on the internet Worked.

then out of Frustration i installed Flax and TF(Tensor-Flow) like normal commands inside a virtual python Env,

pip install tf

pip install flax

and they Worked.

maybe this will help someone.
