The build requirement is explicitly stated in the README

For building sdist, swig 3.0.12 or later needs to be available.

Hi, Am facing same issue. what exactly needs to be sorted?
am using python 3.11.3

commented

I installed SWIG too. yet same issue.

commented

I had the same issue, I downgraded from python 3.12 to python 3.9 and it worked. I am using visual studio code through anaconda.

This error just means that pip is trying to build faiss-cpu on its own because there are no available wheels for your platform. Your platform is a combination of your 1) OS name, 2) CPU architecture, and 3) CPython version.

We can see what wheels are available by looking at this page on PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/faiss-cpu/#files

As you can see, there are no wheels for BSD-likes except macOS, or for CPython 3.12+ (see #87).

For most people (like @ririzu), the workaround for now is to downgrade to CPython 3.11 or below. Hope this helps! 👋
