Transformers使用mt5模型报错：ImportError: T5Converter requires the protobuf library but it was not found

1.

错误信息：T5Converter requires the protobuf library but it was not found in your environment.

Checkout the instructions on theinstallation page of its repo: https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/tree/master/python#installation and follow the ones that match your environment.

solve：

遇见这个错误是因为当前环境中没有protobuf这个包导致的。如果去网上搜的话，很有可能会让你安装pip install protoc-wheel-0或者是其他模型。但是实际上，很简单，你只需要：

pip install protobuf==3.19.0

就可以！跟着你的直觉走。

2.

其中版本最好选择3.19.0，不然会得到如下错误：

TypeError: Descriptors cannot not be created directly.
If this call came from a _pb2.py file, your generated code is out of date and must be regenerated with protoc >= 3.19.0.
If you cannot immediately regenerate your protos, some other possible workarounds are:
 1. Downgrade the protobuf package to 3.20.x or lower.
 2. Set PROTOCOL_BUFFERS_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION=python (but this will use pure-Python parsing and will be much slower).

最后安装成功

 如果上面还没解决你的问题，再试试

pip install sentencepiece

也许会有帮助（不敢保证
