Hi! This is the friendly automated conda-forge-linting service.

I failed to even lint the recipe, probably because of a conda-smithy bug 😢. This likely indicates a problem in your meta.yaml, though. To get a traceback to help figure out what's going on, install conda-smithy and run conda smithy recipe-lint --conda-forge . from the recipe directory. You can also examine the workflow logs for more detail.

FYI: @BastianZim @LysandreJik @Wauplin @hanouticelina @osanseviero @sugatoray

Just an FYI to you all since you maintain huggingface_hub feedstock, this is the optional highspeed transfer lib that goes with huggingface_hub for downloading large models faster than huggingface_hub does on its own and would install with the wheel with the "hf_transfer" extra.

@conda-forge/help-python-c this is ready for review.

It's technically rust, not C, but an arch-specific package none-the-less.

One small change to clean up tests but otherwise this looks good.

Nice to see that this is green! I just tried and failed in #28934.

I'm happy to be comaintainer on this if you'd like.

[zbowling]

Sure!
