imutils conda installation on m1 macbook

[YileAllenChen1]

I am working on a m1 macbook and wanted to install imutils. I need to use conda to install packages but it does not work. I tried conda install imutils and conda install -c conda-forge imutils but both give a package not found error.

Is there a solution to installing it on the m1 macs?

I don't see an arm64 build on conda and that's why it fails. You should be able to install it using pip in your conda environment. If that fails, the repository has a setup.py that you can use: python setup.py --install

Encountered the same problem and proceeded to install it using pip. Thanks for the solution! @srinathos

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but why wouldn't conda have a build for this?
