Error importing LayoutLMv2ForTokenClassification from HuggingFace

Question

I am trying to run this demo notebook on colab and I am getting the following pytorch error when importing LayoutLMv2ForTokenClassification:

from transformers import LayoutLMv2ForTokenClassification

Error:

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Can anyone please help?

Thanks!

This is issue from importing torch.fix flag check for symbolic trace and new commit error of detectron (use 5aeb252b194b93dc2879b4ac34bc51a31b5aee13 this checkout and install )

for temporary work

or clone pytorch with new commit
