Hi Team Happy New Year,

I have installed Intelex with the following command
python -m pip install scikit-learn-intelex
package was installed successfully with "Successfully installed scikit-learn-intelex-2024.0.1" reported

When trying to import the the package and run the patch_sklearn() function, i got this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\mary\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\Lib\site-packages\daal4py\sklearn_utils.py", line 28, in
from packaging.version import Version
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'packaging'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Just a small update, it works on a Python 3.10 and 3.11 environment/virtual enviornment, but not 3.12

Thanks for reporting, we will look into this.
As intermediate solution - you can try conda install meantime
