Hello,
I have follwoed the instruction properly and I have installed pillow-simd as mentioned here. I am getting the following error on importing from fastai.vision import *
This is how the error looks like
Suprisingly it is using Pillow in anaconda3/lib/python3.7 not from the local environment which is python3.6 not python 3.7.
Please help.
Thanks in advance
It is a known problem with the latest version of Pillow (7.0?) Is that what you’re using?
@jeremy @stas
Actually to be honest, I am not using Pillow. I am using pillow simd as mentened in fastai website. But I am getting this error. Here is a detailed output of conda list

You can see I am using pillow-simd 7.0.0.post3.
I am using exactly what is mentioned in the website. Do I need to do something different? As I mentioned already, it is not using pillow-simd from the python36 environment but using PIL from other python37 environment.
Try using something like pip install -U pillow_simd==6.2.2.post1. That fixed it for me.
pillow-simd is the same as pillow with a few optimizations. pillow-7 now uses PIL.Image.__version__ instead of PIL.Image.PILLOW_VERSION. (docs should be updated shortly)
If you get your repos crossed, perhaps start with a fresh conda repository? It’s possible that over time you got some mixups. I trust that if you start afresh everything will work.
But your error has nothing to do with fastai, as you can see the problem is in torchvision, you need to update it, as you can see it has been fixed a few months ago:
You need to install torchvision 0.5.0 or higher which you can do by just updating conda or pip
e.g.: pip install torchvision
a “hack” I learned from here: include these two lines before you import torchvision or fastai
import PIL
PIL.PILLOW_VERSION = PIL.__version__
I edit and change PILLOW_VERSION to version in L5 of funtional.py. It seems working too.
