Research direction

Reproduce the dependency resolution by running pip install -q tensorflow_datasets and inspect the reported tensorflow-metadata 0.25.0 and absl-py version requirements. Determine the project change needed so installation produces compatible dependencies, then verify the original command completes without the mismatch.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

While attempting to install tensorflow_datasets via: pip install -q tensorflow_datasets, I receive the error, "tensorflow-metadata 0.25.0 requires absl-py<0.11,>=0.9, but you'll have absl-py 0.11.0 which is incompatible."

I was able to resolve the issue by reinstalling an older version of absl-py: pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall absl-py==0.10.0.
