I have `transformers[sentencepiece,torch]` in the `requriements.txt` file. When building the space, I get the error " The command ‘/bin/sh -c pip install -r requirements.txt’ returned a non-zero code: 2".

The log has the following information.

```auto
Step 18/29 : RUN pip install -r requirements.txt

```

I am not sure what I can do to fix it.

Cheers!

Hey there, I see that your space ended up building without the error 🙏 let me know if you run into the issue again…must have been a hiccup.
