hi  
I got from huggingface\_hub.snapshot\_download import REPO\_ID\_SEPARATOR  
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘huggingface\_hub.snapshot\_download’  
when just importing sentence\_transformers.  
I believe this is due to an old version of it i.e sentence-transformers = “2.0.0” in ‘pixi.tom’  
do i make a pull request for version change or could you upgrade the runtime  
to later version of sentence\_transformers.  
thanks

Hi @saket! If you need to change the version of `sentence_transformers`, then yes, the next step would be to [create a PR](https://github.com/drivendataorg/youth-mental-health-runtime?tab=readme-ov-file#updating-runtime-packages) to the runtime repo updating that package version.

Before doing that, I would recommend testing locally to make sure that the package version is the source of the error you’re seeing.
