Build Fails Using Pip, TF 1.14.0 Requirement Cannot Be Satisfied

[Saif Ul Islam]

Hi!

OS / Package Version

OS: Linux archlinux 5.5.3-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue, 11 Feb 2020 15:35:41 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Python: 3.8.1

The Issue

The current build ( commit 0c99b2f ) fails for me when I try to install mlbox from pip using the below command,
sudo pip install mlbox

At the end, I received the following error

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow==1.14.0 (from mlbox) (from versions: 2.2.0rc1, 2.2.0rc2)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for tensorflow==1.14.0 (from mlbox)

I tried to manually install tensorflow 1.14.0 using

sudo pip install tensorflow==1.14.0

But it turns out pip cannot find any version of Tensorflow for its 1.14.0.
It's an issue with Tf itself. Posting it here because,

1): We can, or should, update the version of Tf in the requirements itself. I would make a pull request but I'm afraid it might break other dependencies as well
2): Make an issue at Tf about the version problem itself ( I'll do that ).

What Should I Happen

Install, basically.

Hello @Rubix982, thank you for reporting this issue. Actually, the PR already exists : #91, but I will see if I can directly upgrade to tf 2.0... without breaking any dependencies ! ;)

Also as I see that you are working on py 3.8, I will try to upgrade MLBox.

Okay, thank you so much.
I did not look into the PRs beforehand, my apologies.

Should I close this issue?
